Context aware selective backlighting techniques
First Claim
1. A backlight controller comprising:
- a sensor input interface to receive a user display context;
a focal point module to determine a focal point of a display space based on the user display context; and
a backlight driver interface to encode a backlight control signal, wherein said signal indicates that a first set of one or more of a plurality of backlight sections, corresponding to the focal point of the display space, outputs at a different light intensity than a second set of one or more of a plurality of backlight sections.

Abstract
Context aware backlighting techniques include determining a focal point of a display space based on a user display context. The user display context represents an area of interest on the monitor. The user display context can be based on eye tracking data, ambient light data, motion sensing data, cursor location in the display space, an image content, proximity data, or the like and any combination thereof. A first set of one or more of a plurality of backlight sections corresponding to the determined focal point of the display space can be driven to output at a first intensity level, while a second set of one or more of the plurality of backlight sections can be driven to output at a second intensity level.

14. A backlight controller comprising:
-
a sensor input interface to receive one or more sensor input signals; a focal point module to determine a focal point of a display space from the one or more sensor input signals; and a backlight driver interface to encode a backlight control signal, wherein said signal indicates that a first set of one or more of a plurality of backlight sections, corresponding to the focal point of the display space, outputs at a different light intensity than a second set of one or more of a plurality of backlight sections. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
