ADJUSTING SETTINGS OF A PRESENTATION SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method for adjusting settings of a presentation system, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a computer system and from an image capture device, an image that depicts a viewing area proximate to the presentation system;
processing the image, using the computer system, to determine whether a viewer is present in the viewing area;
in response to determining that a viewer is present in the viewing area, processing the image, using the computer system, to determine an ambient lighting value associated with the viewing area and to determine a distance from the presentation system to the viewer; and
adjusting a presentation setting of the presentation system based on the ambient lighting value and the distance.

Abstract
Techniques for adjusting settings of a presentation system are described in various implementations. A method that implements the techniques may include receiving, at a computer system and from an image capture device, an image that depicts a viewing area proximate to the presentation system. The method may also include processing the image, using the computer system, to determine whether a viewer is present in the viewing area. The method may also include, in response to determining that a viewer is present in the viewing area, processing the image, using the computer system, to determine an ambient lighting value associated with the viewing area and to determine a distance from the presentation system to the viewer. The method may also include adjusting a presentation setting of the presentation system based on the ambient lighting value and the distance.

8. A presentation system comprising:
-
a display device; an image capture device that captures an image of a viewing area associated with the display device; an image analyzer, executing on a processor, that processes the image to determine an ambient lighting value associated with the viewing area and a distance from the display device to a viewer who is present in the viewing area; and a presentation controller, executing on a processor, that adjusts a presentation setting of the presentation system based on the ambient lighting value and the distance. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
-
receive an image that depicts a viewing area proximate to the presentation system; process the image to determine whether a viewer is present in the viewing area; in response to determining that a viewer is present in the viewing area, process the image to determine an ambient lighting value associated with the viewing area and to determine a distance from the presentation system to the viewer; and cause a presentation setting of the presentation system to be adjusted based on the ambient lighting value and the distance.
