Mobile Display Power Reduction for Video Using Standardized Metadata

The inordinate power consumption of contemporary display panels accelerates battery depletion in mobile devices. Existing display-power reduction approaches are suboptimal because they incur additional computations and latency on the mobile device or because they assume a server-client model in which a single entity controls the server and the client. To overcome these limitations, we extract standardized metadata at a server and transmit it to a client along with the video bitstream. This metadata includes quality indicators, associated power controls, and contrast-enhancement information. The metadata guarantees that specified quality levels are achieved while avoiding flicker and minimizing power consumption. Furthermore, the metadata has minimal computational, storage & power overheads and, because it is standardized, the metadata benefits servers and clients in open ecosystems wherein all entities function independently. Our research has been implemented on mobile devices and provides, on average, 32.5 percent power reduction at high quality and up to 84 percent power reduction at acceptable quality. The ISO/IEC Moving Pictures Expert Group has recently standardized our proposed metadata in the Green Metadata Standard.
