ANGLE-ADJUSTABLE METHOD AND AUTOMATIC ANGLE-ADJUSTABLE DISPLAY DEVICE
First Claim
1. An automatic angle-adjustable display device for showing images to be viewed by a viewer, the automatic angle-adjustable display device comprising:
- a screen showing the images;
a first wireless transmitting and receiving sensor located at a first position of the screen for emitting a first wireless signal and receiving the first wireless signal reflected from the viewer;
a second wireless transmitting and receiving sensor located at a second position of the screen for emitting a second wireless signal and receiving the second wireless signal reflected from the viewer;
an angle adjustment mechanism connected to the screen for adjusting a viewing angle of the screen with respect to the viewer in response to a control signal; and
a control unit communicated with the first wireless transmitting and receiving sensor, the second wireless transmitting and receiving sensor and the angle adjustment mechanism for triggering the first and second wireless transmitting and receiving sensors to respectively emit the first and second wireless signals, calculating a first distance between the first position of the screen and the viewer and a second distance between the second position of the screen and the viewer according to the reflected first and second wireless signals, and calculating a first distance difference between the first distance and the second distance, thereby generating the control signal according to the first distance difference, wherein in response to the control signal, the angle adjustment mechanism is driven to adjust the viewing angle of the screen with respect to the viewer such that the first distance difference lies within a first predetermined range.

Abstract
An automatic angle-adjustable display device and an angle-adjustable method are provided. The automatic angle-adjustable display device includes a screen, three wireless transmitting and receiving sensors, an angle adjustment mechanism and a control unit. The wireless transmitting and receiving sensors are respectively disposed at first, second and third positions of the screen. In response to a control signal issued from the control unit, the angle adjustment mechanism is driven to adjust the viewing angle of the screen with respect to the viewer. The angle-adjustable method includes steps of triggering the wireless transmitting and receiving sensors to emit these wireless signals, measuring first, second and third distances between the first, second and third positions of the screen and the viewer according to the reflected wireless signals, and adjusting the viewing angle of the screen with respect to the viewer according to these distance differences.
