  • Patent number: 9848155
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a TV program playing method, a remote control and a TV, and the method comprises: obtaining, by the remote control, a first unlock instruction triggered by a first user when a TV system is in standby state; obtaining, by the remote control, a first heart rate feature information of the first user via the optical sensor according to the first unlock instruction; sending, by the remote control, a first playing instruction carrying an identifier of the first user to the TV when a difference between the first heart rate feature information and a second heart rate feature information in a feature library is less than a threshold so that the TV plays a program in a program list corresponding to the identifier of the first user, wherein the feature library pre-stores corresponding relationship between identifiers and heart rate feature information of users.

  • Patent number: 9648294
    Abstract: An image signal processing method, an image signal processing system, and a display are disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention. The method comprises: receiving a video signal; acquiring environmental parameter information of a display environment; adjusting, based on the environmental parameter information, a luminance and/or a chrominance of the video signal such that light of at least one spectral color generated by the video signal is adjusted accordingly; and outputting the adjusted video signal. With the image signal processing method according to the embodiments of the present invention, light of a particular spectral color can be adjusted based on a viewing environment so as to alleviate visual fatigue.
