Abstract
In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for presenting display content on a display of a computing system. A method includes selecting, from a collection of luminance profiles that are each configured to reduce brightness of the display content in different manners, a first luminance profile based on the current display brightness setting, the first luminance profile specifying a first amount of brightness reduction to a peripheral portion of the display content and a first gradient of brightness reduction for a portion of the display content between the peripheral portion of the display content and a center portion of the display content; applying the first luminance profile to the display content to modify the display content by reducing a brightness of the display content according to the first luminance profile; and presenting the display content on the display.
