摘要

The display device (10) has a display (11) and an intensity control circuit (13) for controlling the brightness of the display, where a sensor (14) is provided for monitoring the viewing direction of a user of the display device. A control signal is provided directly or via an intermediate transmitter, which is correlated with the viewing direction of the user, by the sensor during the operation of the display device. The intensity control circuit is provided for controlling the brightness of the display. An independent claim is included for a method for driving a display device using a power-saving mode.
