    Abstract: A system and method for control of perceived brightness level in a display device based on the brightness of individual content items to provide a consistent viewing experience. This is a method of visual content-based brightness control. Adjusting the perceived display of individual visual content items does not rely on the adjustment of a display device's settings or controls, such as a general setting to control the brightness of a display screen, but rather evaluates the visual content being presented and adjusts the presentation layers for display of the visual content provided as part of the display screen. In this way, adjusting parameter(s) of one or more of these presentation layers provides control over the brightness level of the displayed content as a function of the brightness of the content.
