SELECTIVE REDUCTION OF BLUE LIGHT IN A DISPLAY FRAME
First Claim
1. A method of operating a user equipment (UE) coupled to a display screen, comprising:
- entering into a reduced blue light (RBL) mode;
determining, while operating in accordance with the RBL mode, a degree of blue light reduction in at least a portion of a display frame to be output on the display screen using at least one RBL rule from a set of RBL rules that is based upon one or more of (i) application-specific information of an application that is contributing image data to the portion of the display frame, and (ii) content-specific information that characterizes the image data in the portion of the display frame;
selectively reducing the blue light in the at least a portion of the display frame based on the determining; and
sending the display frame with the selectively reduced blue light portion to the display screen for output.

Abstract
In an embodiment, a user equipment (UE) coupled to a display screen enters into a reduced blue light (RBL) mode. The UE determines, while operating in accordance with the RBL mode, a degree of blue light reduction in at least a portion of a display frame to be output on the display screen using at least one RBL rule from a set of RBL rules that is based upon one or more of (i) application-specific information of an application that is contributing image data to the portion of the display frame, and (ii) content-specific information that characterizes the image data in the portion of the display frame. The UE selectively reduces the blue light in the at least a portion of the display frame based on the determining. The UE sends the display frame with the selectively reduced blue light portion to the display screen for output.

30. A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a user equipment (UE) coupled to a display screen, cause the UE to perform operations, the instructions including:
-
at least one instruction to cause the UE to enter into a reduced blue light (RBL) mode; at least one instruction to cause the UE to determine, while operating in accordance with the RBL mode, a degree of blue light reduction in at least a portion of a display frame to be output on the display screen using at least one RBL rule from a set of RBL rules that is based upon one or more of (i) application-specific information of an application that is contributing image data to the portion of the display frame, and (ii) content-specific information that characterizes the image data in the portion of the display frame; at least one instruction to cause the UE to selectively reduce the blue light in the at least a portion of the display frame based on the determination; and at least one instruction to cause the UE to send the display frame with the selectively reduced blue light portion to the display screen for output.
