Outdoor display system and display apparatus
The outdoor display system has a solar cell; an electricity storing unit which stores electricity obtained by the solar cell, and a display apparatus having a displaying portion displaying contents, wherein the apparatus is supplied an electric power from the storing unit or solar cell. The display apparatus may contain a display panel which displays contents; a receiving unit which receives contents transmitted wireless; a backlight which irradiates light to the display panel, and a control unit which controls the displaying of the received contents in the display panel. The control unit may perform the luminosity control of the backlight according to a residual capacity of the electricity storing unit.
1. An outdoor display system comprising:
a solar cell;
an electricity storing unit which stores electricity obtained by the solar cell;
a display apparatus having a displaying portion displaying contents, wherein the apparatus is supplied electricity from the storing unit or the solar cell;
wherein, said display apparatus comprises:
a display panel which displays contents;
a backlight which irradiates light to the display panel; and
a control unit which controls the displaying of the received contents in the display panel, with the control unit performing the luminosity control of the backlight adapted to a residual capacity of the electricity storing unit;
and further wherein;
the control unit receives information of residual capacity of the electricity storing unit,
the control unit controls the luminosity of the backlight based on the daylight illumination amount and the residual capacity of the electricity storing unit when the solar cell is not generating electricity; and
the control unit controls the luminosity of the backlight based on the daylight illumination amount only, out of the daylight illumination amount and the residual capacity of the electricity storing unit, when the solar cell is generating electricity.
2. The outdoor display system according to claim 1 , wherein the display apparatus further comprises:
a detecting unit configured to detect a potential observer of at least a portion of the display panel within a pre-set area adjacent to the display apparatus
wherein the control unit reduces illumination of a backlight or turns the backlight off when the detecting unit fails to detect a potential observer.
3. The outdoor display system according to claim 1 , wherein the display apparatus further comprises:
a detecting unit configured to detect an attribute of a potential observer of at least a portion of the display panel, when the potential observer is within a pre-set area adjacent to the display apparatus; and
a second control unit which switches the contents displayed on the display panel based on the attribute detected by the detecting unit.
