An apparatus for automatically rotating a visual display unit which is capable of rotating a display screen of the visual display unit manually or automatically according to a viewer's desire, and of automatically rotating the display screen rightward and leftward according to a body temperature of the viewer after the body temperature is sensed by using an infrared light radiated from the front surface of the visual display unit, so that the viewer can watch television comfortably and easefully, and its method. The apparatus for automatically rotating a visual display unit including: a body temperature sensing unit for sensing a body temperature of a viewer positioned in front of a display screen; a discrimination unit for receiving an output signal from the body temperature sensing unit and discriminating a range (angle) in which the body temperature is sensed; a range value setting unit for compensating the range in which the body temperature is sensed; an arithmetic operation unit for computing a central axis of rotation of the display screen; and a driving unit for rotating the display screen of the visual display unit according to the result of the computation. |
