Abstract:
Provided is a method for changing an image on a display. The method, in one embodiment, includes providing a first image on a display. The method, in this embodiment, further includes tracking a movement of a user's facial feature as it relates to the first image on the display, and generating a command to provide a second different image on the display based upon the tracking.
Abstract:
A method includes automatically capturing, through a processor of a data processing device communicatively coupled to a memory, one or more parameter(s) related to a visual quality of rendering of a video frame that is part of a sequence on a display unit communicatively coupled to the processor and one or more parameter(s) related to latency associated with the rendering of the video frame on the display unit. The sequence is a video and/or a graphics sequence. The method also includes performing, through the processor, an automatic trade-off between the one or more parameter(s) related to the visual quality and the one or more parameter(s) related to the latency to maintain the one or more parameter(s) related to the visual quality or the one or more parameter(s) related to the latency within a threshold during the rendering of the video frame.
Abstract:
A method includes detecting, through a processor communicatively coupled to a memory, coupling of an external display to a data processing device including an internal display, and cloning, through the processor, display data of the internal display on the external display following the detection of the coupling. The method also includes triggering, through a driver component, the processor to turn off a backlight of the internal display of the data processing device, power gate circuitry associated with rendering the display data on the internal display and/or power gate a processing pipeline associated with the rendering of the display data following the cloning. Further, the method includes maintaining, through the driver component, a touchscreen capability of the internal display even when the backlight is turned off, the circuitry associated with the rendering of the display data is power gated and/or the processing pipeline associated therewith is power gated.

Abstract:
A method includes obtaining, through a distance sensor in conjunction with a processor of a data processing device communicatively coupled to a memory, data related to a distance between a user of the data processing device and a display unit associated therewith. The method also includes automatically modifying, through the processor, a resolution of the display unit and/or a size of an area in which data is to be rendered on the display unit in accordance with the obtained data.
Abstract:
A method includes determining, through a processor of a data processing device in conjunction with one or more sensor(s) associated therewith, an intent of a user of the data processing device to respond to an alert of an incoming communication thereto expressed through a sound volume level and/or a vibrational level of the alert. The method also includes automatically reducing, through the processor, the sound volume level and/or the vibrational level of the alert following the determination of the intent of the user to respond to the alert.
