How does it work?
v PowerSensor works on principle of transmission and reception of harmless “infrared” signals in
order to detect user-presence.
v When the user is in front of the monitor the monitor operates normally, at the predetermined
settings that the user has set- i.e. Brightness, contrast, color, etc
v Assuming that the monitor was set to 100% of brightness for example, when the user leaves
his seat and is no longer in front of the monitor, the monitor automatically reduces the power
consumption up to 80%.
