US 2019/0356951 A1 · DISPLAY APPARATUS WITH INTELLIGENT USER INTERFACE

Abstract

A display apparatus includes presence detection circuitry for detecting an individual in proximity to the display apparatus; a display for displaying video content and a user interface; a processor in communication with the presence detection circuitry and the display; and non-transitory computer readable media in communication with the processor that stores instruction code. The instruction code is executable by the processor, and causes the processor to determine, from the presence detection circuitry, whether a user is in proximity of the display apparatus. When the user is determined to not be in proximity of the display apparatus, the processor pauses the video content. When the user is determined to subsequently be in proximity of the display apparatus, the processor resumes the video content.

Dependent claims

A display apparatus comprising:

presence detection circuitry for detecting an individual in proximity to the display apparatus;
a display for displaying video content and a user interface;
a processor in communication with the presence detection circuitry and the display;
and
non-transitory computer readable media in communication with the processor that stores instruction code, which when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:
determine, from the presence detection circuitry, whether a user is in proximity of the display apparatus;
when the user is determined to not be in proximity of the display apparatus, cause the video content to pause;
and
when the user is determined to subsequently be in proximity of the display apparatus, cause the video content to resume.

6 more elements

A method for controlling a display apparatus comprising:

displaying video content and a user interface;
determining, from presence detection circuitry configured to detect an individual in proximity to the display apparatus, whether a user is in proximity of the display apparatus;
when the user is determined to not be in proximity of the display apparatus, pausing the video content;
and
when the user is determined to subsequently be in proximity of the display apparatus, resuming the video content.

2 more elements

A non-transitory computer readable media that stores instruction code for controlling a display apparatus, the instruction code being executable by a machine for causing the machine to:

determine, via presence detection circuitry of the machine that is configured to detect an individual in proximity to the display apparatus, whether a user is in proximity of the display apparatus;
when the user is determined to not be in proximity of the display apparatus, pause the video content;
and
when the user is determined to subsequently be in proximity of the display apparatus, resume the video content.
