US Patent 11482169 Organic light emitting diode display thermal management

An information handling system organic light emitting diode (OLED) display adapts presentation of visual information to manage a display thermal state, such as to maintain a uniform thermal condition. In one example embodiment, a first display zone of plural pixels presents visual images with a first refresh rate, such as the nominal refresh rate established by the display settings, and a second display zone presents visual images with a partial pixel refresh rate that reduces power dissipation and, thus, thermal energy release so that a more uniform thermal state may be achieved at the display.
