Abstract

The invention proposes a system and method of a display device. When the distance between a user and the display device is too close or far, or the angle between the user and the display device slants too much, the display device sends out a command to inform the user to adjust the user'"'"'s position while watching the display device. A method for the display device comprises following steps: a detecting device and an operating system calculating a relative position between the user and the display device, the operating system generating an warning command according to the relative position, a warning module receiving the warning command and afterward sending out the command, the command being sent to a display module, a motion-generating device and an audio device.

Claims

1. A display device with a function to detect a distance and an angle between a user and the display device comprising:

a detecting device detecting a position indicator between the user and the display device;

an operating system connected with the detecting device to calculate a relative position between the user and the display device according to the position indicator received by the operating system and to generate and transmit a warning command;

a warning module connected to the operating system to receive the warning command and to generate and transmit a command; and

a display module connected to the warning module to receive and execute the command, the command as an obstruction command;

wherein the obstruction command able to interrupt a screen being displayed on the display module or able to cover the screen displaying on the display module with a picture, words, or the combination thereof.

2. The display device claimed in claim 1, wherein the detecting device further detects a motion indicator and a sound indicator between the user and the display device.

3. The display device claimed in claim 1, wherein the relative position is an angle or a distance.

4. The display device claimed in claim 1, wherein the operating system is connected to an internet interface.

5. The display device claimed in claim 1, wherein the display device is a mobile phone, a television, a monitor or any other type of display.

6. The display device claimed in claim 1, wherein the detecting device is a video scanner, a camera or any other type of image receiver.

7. The display device claimed in claim 1, wherein the operating system is a central processor.

8. The display device claimed in claim 1, wherein the warning module is a computing chip for generating the command according to the warning command or a software or an application.

9. The display device claimed in claim 1, wherein the command is further for motion generating, for turning off, or for a sound effect, for an image effect, or the combination thereof.

10. The display device claimed in claim 9, wherein the command for turning off is transmitted to the display module and the screen of the display module is turned off.

11. The display device claimed in claim 9, wherein the command for motion generating is able to control a motion-generating device to make the display device vibrated, the motion-generating device connected to the warning module.

12. The display device claimed in claim 9, wherein the command for sound effect is able to make an audio device generated a sound, the sound being a siren tone, a bell tone, a vocal file, or a music file, the audio device connected to the warning module.

13. A method for operating a display device with an ability to detect a distance and an angle between a user and the display device comprising steps of:

(a) a detecting device of a display device detecting a position indicator specifying a distance between a user and the display device;

(b) the detecting device transmitting the position indicator to an operating system;

(c) the operating system receiving the position indicator and calculating a relative position between the user and the display device;

(d) the operating system generating a warning command or returning to the step (a);

(e) after receiving the warning command, a warning module generating and transmitting a command;

an operating software for the display device to operate installed on the display device by ways of being built-in, downloading from internet or from Universal Serial Bus (USB), or by Local Area Network (LAN) sharing, the user able to choose to start or to close the operating software protected by a code, the command as an obstruction command;

the obstruction command able to interrupt a screen being displayed on a display module or able to cover the screen displayed on the display module with a picture, words, or the combination thereof.

14. The method claimed in claim 13, wherein the detecting device in the step (a) detects a motion indicator and a sound indicator between the user and the display device.

15. The method claimed in claim 13, wherein the relative position in the step (c) is an angle or a distance.

16. The method claimed in claim 13, wherein the warning command in the step (d) is generated by the operating system as the angle or the distance between the user and the display device exceed a predetermined value.

17. The method claimed in claim 16, wherein the predetermined value is double or triple of the screen diagonal of the screen displayed on the display module.

18. The method claimed in claim 16, wherein the predetermined value is in the range of 0 degree (0°

) to 25 degrees (25°

) of normal vector of the user and the plane of the display device.

19. The method claimed in claim 13, wherein the obstruction command makes the screen displayed on the display module vibrated, turned into one colour.

20. The method claimed in claim 13, wherein the command in the step (e) is for a motion generating, for turning off, for a sound effect, for an image effect, or the combination thereof.
