Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and devices for employing gaze tracking systems with automatic luminance adjustment devices, in particular those commonly used with the Silverstein-method. By employing the aspects disclosed herein, it can been seen that with the disclosed concepts a pupil-size detector may be employed with both a forward looking light sensor, and ambient light sensor, and an adjustment system to utilize the data to determine luminance adjustment.
Claims7
A system for adjusting an electronic display, comprising:
- a gaze tracking device to capture an image of a pupil associated with a viewer of the electronic display, the diameter of the pupil being ascertained via the image of the pupil;
- an ambient light sensor receiver to logarithmically receive light information from an ambient light sensor;
- a forward looking light sensor to logarithmically receive light information from the forward looking light sensor;
- and
- a microcontroller to adjust a luminance of the electronic display based on a combination of the diameter and the light information received from both the ambient light sensor and the forward looking light sensor.
