Abstract

A method for adjusting screen brightness and system thereof are described. The method comprises: acquiring an attribute parameter of a screen image and a current screen brightness in a smartphone; comparing the attribute parameter of the screen image of the smartphone to the current screen brightness; and decreasing a screen display brightness when the attribute parameter is greater than the screen brightness; and increasing the screen display brightness when the attribute parameter is less than the screen brightness.

Claims (29)

1. A method for adjusting screen brightness, the method comprising the steps of:

assigning a fixed ID number to each of a plurality of images in a system and storing an attribute parameter corresponding to the fixed ID number of each image;

acquiring an attribute parameter of an image currently displayed on a screen and a screen brightness of the screen;

comparing the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen to the screen brightness; and

decreasing the screen brightness for equalizing the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen after a parameter adjustment to the screen brightness before a brightness adjustment when the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen is greater than the screen brightness; and increasing the screen brightness for equalizing the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen after the parameter adjustment to the screen brightness before the brightness adjustment when the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen is less than the screen brightness; wherein during the step of acquiring the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen, further comprising the steps of:

acquiring a current procedure on the screen executed by a user and the screen brightness and determining whether the current procedure executed by the user is an image-browsing procedure;

acquiring a fixed ID number of the image currently displayed on the screen and acquiring the attribute parameter corresponding to the image currently displayed on the screen based on the fixed ID number of the image currently displayed on the screen if the current procedure executed by the user is the image-browsing procedure; and

acquiring an attribute parameter of a screenshot if the current procedure executed by the user is not the image-browsing procedure.

2. The method for adjusting screen brightness of claim 1 , during the step of acquiring the attribute parameter of the screenshot if the current procedure executed by the user is not the image-browsing procedure, further comprising the steps of:

calling a screen image-capturing procedure at predetermined intervals to capture the screenshot;

storing the captured screenshot in a SD card;

acquiring the attribute parameter of the captured screenshot; and

canceling the captured screenshot.

3. The method for adjusting screen brightness of claim 1 , wherein the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen comprises a contrast ratio, a color tone and a brightness.

4. A non-transitory storage medium storing instructions thereon which are executed by a processor, wherein the instructions executed by the processor perform the operations of:

assigning a fixed ID number to each of a plurality of images in a system and storing an attribute parameter corresponding to the fixed ID number of each image;

acquiring an attribute parameter of an image currently displayed on a screen and a screen brightness of the screen;

comparing the attribute parameter to the screen brightness; and

decreasing the screen brightness for equalizing the attribute parameter after a parameter adjustment to the screen brightness before a brightness adjustment when the attribute parameter is greater than the screen brightness; and

increasing the screen brightness for equalizing the attribute parameter after the parameter adjustment to the screen brightness before the brightness adjustment when the attribute parameter is less than the screen brightness; wherein when the processor performs the operation of acquiring the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen, the processor further performs the operations of:

acquiring a current procedure on the screen executed by a user and determining whether the current procedure executed by the user is an image-browsing procedure;

acquiring the fixed ID number of the image currently displayed on the screen and acquiring an attribute parameter corresponding to the image currently displayed on the screen based on the fixed ID number of the image currently displayed on the screen if the current procedure executed by the user is the image-browsing procedure; and

acquiring an attribute parameter of a screenshot if the current procedure executed by the user is not the image-browsing procedure.

5. The non-transitory storage medium storing instructions thereon which are executed by the processor of claim 4 , wherein when the processor performs the operation of acquiring the attribute parameter of the screenshot, the processor further performs the operations of:

calling a screen image-capturing procedure at predetermined intervals to capture the screenshot;

storing the captured screenshot in a SD card;

acquiring the attribute parameter of the captured screenshot; and

canceling the captured screenshot.

6. The non-transitory storage medium of claim 4 , wherein the attribute parameter of the image currently displayed on the screen comprises a contrast ratio, a color tone and a brightness.
