INSTALLING YOUR TV
The camera sensor installed in this TV can detect a person's
face or movement and identify individuals by their registered
faces. Please note that certain factors can affect the
performance of the sensor function as set out below.
General Sensor Function
• For the sensor to operate (for each function) you will need
to be within the sensor detection range as set out below.
• The approximate effective detection range of the camera
sensor is as shown below. (Note: The distance and angle of
the detection range are based on a standard viewing
environment and conditions).
– Horizontal angle: approx. 58° (approx. 29° × 2)

Face Detection (50 ~ 500cm)
– Distance: approx. 50 cm to 500 cm (Personal Identification
Function: approx. 50 cm to 400 cm)
• Do not place anything in front of the TV that may
obstruct detection or reduce the sensor detection
range.
Motion Detection Function
• Motion detection may be affected by the surrounding
environment, such as the brightness of the room. In
addition, very slight, small or momentary movement may
be undetected.
• Sensor performance can be enhanced by making sure the
room is brightly lit and using prolonged and obvious
movements.
• Billowing curtains, a pet or variations in illumination in the
detection range may be detected as motion, even if there is
no person there.
• You can use the camera sensor confirmation menu to check
that no movement made by other persons is being
detected.
About the Camera Sensor
Face Detection Function
• The sensor can detect up to eight persons.
• Face Detection may be affected if:
– Your face is obstructed or partially hidden, for example,
– Your head is tilted or turned to one side, or
– You are wearing dark glasses or the light is reflected in
• You can use the camera sensor confirmation menu to check
whether your face is detected.
• The camera sensor may detect background images such as
a picture portrait or the pattern on the wall as eyes or nose
even if there is no person there. You can use the
confirmation screen to check whether any such object in
the detection range is being incorrectly detected as a face.
• Face Detection can be less effective on darker complexions
and in darker environments.
• Face Detection can be enhanced by making sure your face

is clearly visible and evenly lit. If the room is dark, Face
(50 ~ 500cm)
Detection can be enhanced by making sure the room is
brightly lit. If the lighting environment creates a shadow on
your face, Face Detection can be enhanced by adjusting the
lighting to prevent shadows.
Personal Identification Function
• The Personal Identification Function is part of the Face
Detection Function. The factors affecting the Face
Detection Function set out above also apply to the Personal
Identification Function.
• Personal Identification may in addition be affected by:
– A different shadow pattern from that when your face was
– A different lighting environment from when your face was
– Whether or not you are wearing glasses. If you wear
– A different facial expression. Personal Identification accuracy
• Personal Identification may be affected when faces have
similar characteristics (e.g. brothers, sisters, twins).
• Personal Identification is less effective on the faces of young
children.
Face Registration Function
• Up to four people can be registered under the Personal
Identification Function. The same person cannot be
registered twice.
• A maximum of 10 different facial images per person can be
registered. Personal identification accuracy can be enhanced
by registering different facial images as set out above.
• It is advisable to register your face in your usual viewing
position and with your natural facial expression. Registering
your face too near to or too far from the screen may hinder
identification performance.
