Patent Images
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a display device, wherein the display device comprises;
an arrangement adapted to ascertain at least one environmental condition, the at least one environmental condition comprising ambient light; and
an arrangement adapted to modulate at least one display setting of the display device based on the at least one environmental condition;
wherein the at least one display setting comprises an operating system setting selected from a group consisting of a resolution setting, an inverse font setting, an inverse display setting, an enlarged text setting, and a display zoom setting; and
wherein the at least one environmental condition further comprises a geographic location based on detection of at least one network.

Abstract
Arrangements and methods are provided that modulate various display device outputs in response to detected changes in environmental conditions affecting a display screen. The arrangement responds to changing environments to maximize the quality of the display. A sensor that is responsive to the changing environment, such as changes in ambient light, is provided to modulate the display accordingly. The arrangement contains logic for utilizing the sensing input and user preferences to provide the best display under the prevailing conditions.
