      4 ## Description
      5 
      6 *CABC* or *Content adaptive backlight control* is the technique that will adjust
      7 panel backlight brightness according to the content. With a bright image showing
      8 on screen, this won't help saving much power. However, when showing darker image
      9 on screen, instead of using the same amount of backlight to show that image,
     10 panel will adjust that image to a brighter version of it and lower the backlight
     11 brightness to make the perception image similar but use lower power.
