Patent number: 9286850Abstract: To provide a display method capable of displaying the original power saving effect if a monitoring display of the power saving effect is not made when the monitoring display of the power saving effect is made. Provided is a display method including capturing an image in front of an image display surface included in a display apparatus that displays the image and detecting presence of a moving body positioned in front of the image display surface, deciding a power saving amount of the display apparatus including the power saving amount of the image display surface by using an analysis result of the presence or absence of a human face and a detection result of the moving body in the captured image, and deriving and displaying the actual power saving amount when no display is made on the image display surface on the image display surface when information about the power saving amount is displayed on the image display surface.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2010Date of Patent: March 15, 2016Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Eijiro Mori, Yusuke Sakai, Kenichi Okada, Haruo Oba, Shingo Tsurumi, Yuichi Iida, Shinichi Hayashi, Asako Tadenuma, Junichi Tsukamoto
