Acer light sensor

Acer light sensor allows the TravelMate C300 to automatically brighten or darken the display’s backlighting to reduce eyestrain. At the top of the screen, with the status indicators, is the Acer light sensor.

Depending on ambient brightness the screen

When the computer is taken from an area of normal lighting, such as an office, to a darker area, such as a conference room for a presentation, the screen will automatically dim - while still providing the same relative brightness and contrast. Conversely, if the computer is taken into a very bright atrium from the office, the screen will increase in brightness so that you won’t have to squint to see what you’re working on.

Light sensing has 4 preset modes:

Mode 1 - the lowest brightness setting for darkened conference rooms

Mode 2 - for use in softly lit areas

Mode 3 - standard office setting to deal with overhead fluorescent lighting

Mode 4 - the brightest setting for working in very bright conditions

Note: The maximum screen brightness is limited by the LCD manufacturing specifications. The panel will can not be made so bright as to be clearly seen in bright sunlight.
