ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROLLING METHOD OF ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240086028 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROLLING METHOD OF ELECTRONIC DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic device with sensors and a mirror display that can adjust the luminance of displayed content based on the user's presence and ambient light conditions.
- First sensor detects user in front of mirror display
- Second sensor senses light from external source
- Processor obtains information about user's reflection on mirror display
- Processor determines area for displaying content based on user's position
- Processor adjusts luminance of display area based on ambient light
- Mirror display shows content with adjusted luminance
Potential Applications
This technology could be used in smart mirrors for personalized displays, interactive advertising displays, and augmented reality applications.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of adjusting display luminance based on user presence and ambient light conditions, providing a better viewing experience for users.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved visibility of displayed content, energy efficiency by adjusting luminance based on ambient light, and enhanced user experience with personalized displays.
Potential Commercial Applications
Commercial applications of this technology include smart mirrors for retail stores, interactive displays in public spaces, and personalized advertising displays in malls and airports.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be smart mirrors with sensors for adjusting display content based on user interaction, but the specific feature of adjusting luminance based on ambient light conditions may be a novel aspect of this technology.
Unanswered Questions
How does the device differentiate between different users in front of the mirror display?
The abstract does not provide details on how the device distinguishes between multiple users in front of the mirror display. This could be a potential area for further exploration in the technology.
What is the range of ambient light conditions that the device can effectively adjust the luminance for?
The abstract does not specify the range of ambient light conditions that the device can adapt to. Understanding the limitations of the technology in different lighting environments could be important for practical applications.
Original Abstract Submitted
provided is an electronic device including a first sensor configured to sense a user; a second sensor configured to sense light incident from an external light source; a mirror display; a memory; and a processor configured to: based on the first sensor sensing the user in front of the mirror display, obtain information about a first area in which a first image corresponding to a reflection of the user is located on the mirror display; determine a second area for displaying content to be provided to the user based on the information about the first area; based on information about light being obtained through the second sensor, determine luminance of the second area based on the information about the light; and control the mirror display to display the content with the determined luminance on the second area.
