In the past it was believed that watching TV from close could damage your vision or cause health problems due to excessive radiation emissions. Even that has been proven wrong, it is still recommended to teach kids to keep some distance of screens to prevent them from developing eye strain and fatigue in adulthood, once the habit has been formed. Watch out! aims to help educate early TV watchers by automatically turning your TV screen off when it senses someone standing at an unrecommended distance.
