Problems solved by technology

Since electronic devices are often placed in pockets or bags, light sensors cannot be used to properly determine the amount of time a user has been in a low-light environment and / or high-light environment
Even in those cases where electronic equipment is taken out and placed in an open environment, the light sensor may face a flat surface (e.g., a tabletop), which results in false readings of ambient light levels
Also, light sensors cannot tell if the user is in a different location than the device

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a system and method of setting a display brightness of a display of an electronic device. One or more images of a user of the electronic device may be captured with a camera of the electronic device. A characteristic of an eye of the user may be detected in the one or more images. A light adaptation state of the user's eye may be determined based on the detected characteristic. The display brightness of the display of the electronic device may be set in view of the determined light adaptation state.

Description

technical field [0001] The disclosed technology relates generally to setting display brightness of a display of an electronic device, and more particularly, to a system and method for setting display brightness of a display of an electronic device based on an optical adaptation state of a user's eyes. Background technique [0002] Mobile wireless electronic devices are becoming more and more popular. For example, currently, mobile phones, tablet computers, laptop computers, and portable gaming devices are widely used. Many of these devices include emissive displays (eg, LED backlit displays, OLED displays, etc.). To improve the ease and / or comfort of viewing the display for a user, the brightness of the display may be adjusted based on the amount of ambient light in the environment in which the device is used. For example, the comfort of reading text displayed on a display in a brightly lit room (high light intensity environment) can be improved by using brighter display s...
