Abstract: End user interactions at a display are monitored for predetermined conditions to provide augmentation of display presentation by a red light that illuminates in the 650 to 800 nm range, such as at substantially 670 nm. Instructions stored in non-transient memory and executed on a processor present visual images of varied color contrast and evaluate end user inputs to determine an end user visual acuity. Over time and use of the display and red light, end user visual acuity is periodically tested to evaluate the effectiveness of red light illumination to restore visual acuity.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a display device and a processor. The display device outputs pixels associated with a text font. The processor converts red, green, blue (RGB) pixels to image perspective transformation (IPT) pixels. The processor further sharpens one or more of the IPT pixels that do not have color. The sharpening of the one or more of the IPT pixels identifies edges of the text font and defines widths of the text font. The processor corrects edge overshoot and edge undershoot created by a digital filter. The edge overshoot and the edge undershoot are corrected for each IPT pixel associated with the text edges. The processor also reduces noise enhancement in the sharpened IPT pixels, retains grey text portions of each of the sharpened IPT pixels, and converts the IPT pixels to new RGB pixels. The processor outputs the new RGB pixels to the display device.

Abstract: Methods and a system for pixel-by-pixel correction of diffuse reflected and specular reflected light on a display device of an information handling system. Voltage values of pixels of the display device are measured by sensors. Measured voltage values of a pixel are converted to a digital value. A digital correction value calculated based on whether diffuse reflected light or diffuse reflected light and specular reflected light is found on the pixel. A sigmoid transfer function and discrete sharpening filter is performed on the pixel, if the digital correction value is less than zero.

Abstract: End user cumulative blue light exposure from a display is tracked over time so that a message may be provided to the end user if the exposure exceeds a threshold. For instance, a display frame buffer is retrieved to determine an average blue light component presented at the display, which is then adjusted based upon display characteristics, such as display size, luminance and brightness, end user distance to the display and a sensed ambient blue light component.
