Advanced Technologies
LightSensor
Image Description: An illustration shows a monitor screen with a sensor icon adjusting to ambient light sources, indicating automatic brightness control for optimal viewing and minimal power usage.
The integrated LightSensor intelligently adapts screen brightness to the ambient lighting conditions, ensuring perfect picture quality while minimizing power consumption.
PowerSensor
Image Description: A diagram shows a user at a desk. An infrared sensor detects the user's presence. When the user moves away, the monitor's screen dims, illustrating energy saving.
PowerSensor is an integrated sensor that detects user presence via harmless infrared signals. It automatically reduces screen brightness when the user steps away from the desk, saving up to 70% energy and extending the monitor's lifespan.
Eyesafe® Certified & SoftBlue Technology
Image Description: A split image shows a scenic view and the TÜV Rheinland Eyesafe® RPF® 40 Certified logo. Another image depicts a woman looking at a computer screen with a softer, warmer light emission.
The Philips monitor meets the TÜV Rheinland Eyesafe® standard, effectively protecting against prolonged exposure to blue light. The always-on blue light filter reduces digital eye strain without compromising color integrity. SoftBlue LED technology further reduces harmful blue light emissions by nearly 50% for a more comfortable viewing experience.
LowBlue Mode & FlickerFree
Image Description: A serene nighttime landscape with a softly lit tent, evoking a sense of calm and reduced eye strain.
LowBlue Mode and FlickerFree technologies are designed to minimize eye strain and fatigue, which are often caused by extended periods of screen time.
