The Eco Pro screensaver works just like BMW’s Auto Start/Stop function, in which a vehicle’s engine is switched off at a standstill, and is restarted automatically when the driver presses the accelerator pedal. Using a webcam and facial detection coding, the Eco Pro screensaver is able to detect your absence or presence to either switch off or activate your computer screen. According to BMW Group Malaysia, the Eco Pro screensaver can reduce the average energy consumption on an idling computer by 693.99watts, a 89.87% reduction from the regular default settings in a computer.
