2. 2 | Building Technologies Programeere.energy.gov Power use dependence on luminance – Review How luminance varies with changing room lighting levels How power varies with changing room lighting levels Luminance versus power charts to further demonstrate varying current implementations of ABC Overview

3. 3 | Building Technologies Programeere.energy.gov 1.User modifies screen settings (e.g., home vs. retail or sport vs. cinema) 2.Average picture level (APL) of image being displayed changes (as we see when running the IEC test clip) 3.Televisions modifies its own luminance settings under Automatic Brightness Control in response to changes in room illuminance The consequence of increases in screen luminance is always the same, though – power use goes up. How much of TV power use is associated with the production of light? About 60-75% in the units we have measured so far. TVs Can Change Luminance Levels in Three Ways
