METHOD FOR DETECTING DISPLAY PROPERTIES

摘要

A method and system evaluates user interfaces (UIs) for presentation on a display of a mobile communication device. A display controller, in response to detecting an initiation of a presentation of a specified UI on the display, determines a type of the display by evaluating power consumption behavior of the display associated with individually presenting each of multiple pre-defined UIs on the display. Based on the display type, the display controller identifies a specific display parameter associated with the display and which identifies relevant image characteristics of UIs that can be presented on the display. The display controller evaluates a display parameter value for the specified UI, compares the display parameter value with a threshold display parameter value, and provides a notification that indicates, based on a result of the comparison, whether the specified UI satisfies the power consumption specification and is recommended for presentation on the display.

1. A method for evaluating user interfaces (UIs) for presentation on a display of a mobile communication device, the method comprising:
determining a type of the display by evaluating a power consumption behavior of the display while presenting a plurality of pre-defined UIs each having distinguishable image characteristics that cause different display types to be associated with distinguishable power consumption behaviors; based on the determined display type, identifying a specific display parameter and a first threshold display parameter value associated with power consumption specifications for the display, wherein the specific display parameter identifies relevant image characteristics of UIs that can be presented on the display; evaluating a display parameter value for a specified UI based on the image characteristics of the specified UI; comparing the display parameter value of the specified UI with the first threshold display parameter value to determine if the specified UI satisfies a power consumption specification for presentation of a UI on the display; and providing a notification that indicates, based on a result of the comparison, whether the specified UI satisfies the power consumption specification and is recommended for presentation on the display.
