The command "corebrightnessd" refers to the CoreBrightness daemon on macOS. A daemon is a background process that runs continuously, performing specific tasks or providing functionality to other processes.
In the case of CoreBrightness, it is responsible for managing the brightness of displays on Mac computers. It interacts with the hardware and software components related to display brightness, allowing users to control and adjust the brightness level of their screens.
The daemon actively monitors user input, system settings, and various sensors (such as ambient light sensors) to determine the appropriate brightness level. It then communicates with the display drivers to adjust the backlight accordingly.
Overall, the "corebrightnessd" command is responsible for running and managing the CoreBrightness daemon, ensuring that the display brightness functions properly on macOS.
