Abstract
In various embodiments, a computer-implemented method includes determining a size of a display area of a display panel on which one or more images are being displayed, determining a threshold current value based on the size, measuring a first current drawn by the display panel, determining whether the first current exceeds the threshold current value, and upon determining that the first current exceeds the threshold current value, causing a second current providing power to a light source associated with the display panel to be shut off.
