INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18418750 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD

The abstract describes an information processing apparatus that controls the display unit's on/off state and brightness based on programs running on the system.

  • The processor executes first processing to control the display unit's on/off state and brightness.
  • Second processing changes the brightness setting value based on the running program.
  • Third processing restores the brightness setting value when transitioning from display-on to display-off state.

Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in various devices with display units, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for efficient control of display brightness based on running programs, enhancing user experience and energy efficiency.

Benefits: Improved user experience, energy efficiency, and seamless transition between display states are the key benefits of this technology.

Commercial Applications: This technology can be utilized in consumer electronics, automotive displays, and industrial control panels to optimize display performance and energy consumption.

Prior Art: Readers can explore prior art related to display control systems, program-based brightness adjustments, and energy-efficient display technologies.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about the latest advancements in display control systems, program-based brightness management, and energy-efficient technologies.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve user experience and energy efficiency? 2. What are the potential commercial applications of this display control system?


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus includes a memory which temporarily stores a program of a system and programs running on the system; and a processor which executes processing based on the programs stored in the memory. The processor performs first processing to perform control between display on and display off of a display unit based on the program of the system and control the brightness of the display unit in the display-on state based on a brightness setting value, second processing to change the brightness setting value based on a program running on the system in the display-on state, and third processing in which, when performing control from the display-on state to the display off by the first processing, the brightness setting value changed by the second processing based on the program running on the system is restored to the brightness setting value before change.
