Summary:An example computing device according to the systems and methods described herein may include a camera to capture images of a user during operation of a computing device. The computing device may execute a plurality of applications, some of which may include application windows displayed on a display panel of the computing device. A gaze detection subsystem or module may detect a gaze direction of the user in each of the captured images. For each captured image, the gaze detection subsystem or module may compute or otherwise identify the user's focus on one or more application windows displayed on a display panel of the computing device. A brightness control module may modify the relative brightness of each application window displayed on the display panel based on a function of the frequency of user focus, duration of user focus, and recency of user focus on each respective application window.
