Automatic brightness control for displays
09940902 · 2018-04-10 · ·

An automatic brightness adjustment for devices with displays includes the capability to assess ambient light. The assessment may be made using circuitry, such as a light meter circuit, by exploiting exposure control circuitry, or using other approaches. The ambient light value is sent to a brightness adjustment driver, which may employ a look-up table to keep track of brightness adjustments for particular ambient conditions. The look-up table may include distinct adjustment values.

A signal processing device includes a converter and a selector. The converter converts an input video signal into the output video signal for the low-brightness display device. The selector selects one of the input video signal and the output video signal, and outputs the selected video signal to the display. The selector selects the output video signal in a case where a high-brightness flag indicating a video signal for a high-brightness display device is added to the input video signal, and the selector selects the input video signal in a case where the high-brightness flag is not added to the input video signal.
