First Claim
1. A system for avoiding eye and bodily injury from using a display device, comprising a control unit, a storage unit, a timer, a counter, an on screen display (OSD) component, and a displaying unit, wherein:
- the storage unit is for storing a first program and a second program;
the timer is for respectively measuring corresponding running times of the first and second programs;
the counter is for counting a running count for successively running the first program;
the control unit is for running the first and second programs stored in the storage unit and outputting control signals;

Abstract
A system for avoiding eye and bodily injury from using a display device comprises: a storage unit for storing a first program and a second program; a timer for respectively measuring corresponding running time of the programs; a counter for counting a continuous running count of the first program; a control unit for running the programs stored in the storage unit and outputting a control signal; an OSD (On Screen Display) component for receiving the control signal, and outputting OSD data such as a series of dynamic icons for reminding users to blink, and pattern data for reminding users to take exercises; and a display unit for receiving the OSD data to display the dynamic icons, and the pattern data to show a comfort display. A corresponding method is also provided.

11. A method for avoiding eye and bodily injury from using a display device, comprising the steps of:
-
(a) presetting a value of an interval and a number;
(b) setting a waiting time for running a first program, a running time and a running count of the first program, and a running time of a second program as “
0;
”(c) measuring the waiting time;
(d) if the waiting time has reached a first preset threshold value of the interval, running the first program to display a series of dynamic icons for reminding a user to relax his/her eyes;
(e) after the first program has finished, increasing the running count once;
(f) if the running count has not reached a second preset threshold value of the number, going to step (c), otherwise, running the second program to display a mode for reminding the user to relax his/her body; and
(g) after the second program has finished, going back to step (b) if or as required. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method for avoiding ocular injury and bodily injury from long-termed use of a display device, comprising the steps of:
-
providing a first program running as a reminder of performing relief from said ocular injury;
providing a second program running as a reminder of performing relief from said bodily injury;
running said first program for a first duration after an operating time of said display device meets a preset value;
repeating said running of said first program; and
running automatically said second program for a second duration in case that said repeating of said running of said first program meets a preset condition. - View Dependent Claims (20)
