DISPLAY BACKLIGHT SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

A system and method for controlling backlight luminance of a display that includes a display region in which an image may be selectively rendered includes one or more devices for determining if operation in a reduced power mode is desired. If operation in the reduced power mode is not desired, the display region is at least substantially uniformly backlit. If operation in the reduced power mode is desired, only selected sections of the display region are selectively backlit.
