You know that feeling . You ’re in a dark way , possibly you just wake up up , and you reach for your phone to check something and — BAM!—you’re assaulted by its full smartness and effectively unsighted and squinting for the next 30 second . Or peradventure you just desire to text at the movies . Microsoft hasa potential fix for that .
Microsoft latterly filed a letters patent for something called “ inconspicuous way . ” In the same vein as car - brightness — which never seems to go low enough — inconspicuous musical mode would be context sensible . If it could tell you were in a sullen way ( maybe a theater , or commercial enterprise presentation ) , it would n’t just wrick down the brightness , but instead remove the amount of things create light on the silver screen , scale down the UI to be a turgid portion of black . It ’d be both invisible others and euphemistic to your own lookin’-balls .
A patent software does n’t needfully signify this is something that ’s going to roll out , but hopefully it will . It ’s a overbold , dewy-eyed solution to a problem that batch of us have , though for a variety of unlike reasons . The bummer would be if Microsoft get this on lock , though . This is a feature of speech every telephone set should have . mayhap someday . [ USPTOviaEngadget ]
