Protecting content displayed on a mobile device

1. A system for protecting content comprising:

a mobile device screen including a plurality of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels having both first sub-pixel units that include a first viewing angle and second sub-pixel units that include a second viewing angle, wherein within each of the plurality of pixels the first sub-pixel units are adjacent to the second sub-pixel units; and

a processor coupled to the mobile device screen, the processor determining at least a portion of the mobile device screen that displays a plurality of predetermined sensitive content, the processor obscuring the sensitive content displayed on the at least a portion of the mobile device screen by deactivating the first sub-pixel units including the first viewing angle at the portion of the mobile device screen that displays the sensitive content and activating the second sub-pixel units including the second viewing angle at the portion of the mobile device screen that displays the sensitive content; and

a camera device coupled to the processor, the camera device detecting one or more users viewing the mobile device screen, wherein the detecting of one or more unauthorized users is based on a determination that an image of the one or more users has a comparison value below a threshold value when comparing the image of the one or more users to a plurality of images stored in a database of authorized users, and wherein based on the camera device detecting the one or more unauthorized users viewing the mobile device screen, the processor obscures the sensitive content displayed on all portions of the mobile device screen by deactivating the first sub-pixel units and deactivating the second sub-pixel units.

2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising an infrared (IR) light emitter embedded in the mobile device screen, wherein the IR light emitter is activated and deactivated by the processor, and wherein based on the camera device detecting a second camera device or set of camera devices, the IR light emitter generates an infrared signal that saturates an image sensor of the second camera device or set of camera devices.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the IR light emitter includes one or more IR light emitting diodes located within the each of the plurality of pixels.

4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the IR light emitter includes one or more IR light emitting diodes that are embedded either within a peripheral portion of the mobile device screen or stacked under the plurality of pixels.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein each of the second sub-pixel units that include the second viewing angle comprise a collimator lens that collimates a diverging light output from the respective second sub-pixel units.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein each of the second sub-pixel units that include the second viewing angle comprise an optical beam steering mechanism for directing an optical output of the each of the second sub-pixel units towards an authorized viewer of the displayed sensitive content.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second viewing angle has a smaller viewing angle relative to the first viewing angle for visually obscuring the sensitive content at viewing angles that exceed the second viewing angle.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first sub-pixel units that include the first viewing angle each include a first red light emitting diode, a first green light emitting diode, and a first blue light emitting diode, and wherein the second sub-pixel units that include the second viewing angle each include a second red light emitting diode, a second green light emitting diode, and a second blue light emitting diode, wherein the second viewing angle has a smaller viewing angle relative to the first viewing angle for visually obscuring the sensitive content at viewing angles that exceed the second viewing angle.
