Enter the Eizo Nanao FlexScan monitors with EcoView Sense.
EcoView Sense allows the monitor to sense movement, or more accurately, the lack of movement. After 40 seconds of inactivity in the monitors proximity, it will automatically shut down.

In fact they even state it…
Little changes can make a big difference for both our savings and for our environment. Don’t wait for a competition. Start making those changes yourself.
