Patent attributes
A projector comprising a light engine, a detector, and a control unit is disclosed. The light engine comprises a light source and generates a projection beam based on the light from the light source. The space which the projection beam passes through is defined as a projection area, and a security area is defined by the projector to include or overlap the projection area. The detector detects whether a living organism is in the security area or not. When the detector detects a living organism in the security area, the detector generates a warning signal and transmits the warning signal to the control unit. After receiving the warning signal, the control unit directs the projector to enter a security mode to protect the living organism from being hurt.
