In 10 years, half the world’s population will suffer from myopia. Today, 1 in 10 children suffer from vision problems. Screens are an integral part of children’s lives. The problem is they hold the screen too close to their eyes. It’s a daily struggle for parents to change this behavior. We needed to make sure children watch responsibly. So, we created Samsung Safety Screen, an app that helps children hold the screen at an optimal distance from their eyes.

The app operates in the background. It uses facial recognition technology to calculate the optimal distance. When the screen is too close to the child’s eyes, the app will block the screen. It will only become unblocked when the child moves his face back to the appropriate distance.
