      If I open the screen for a long time, I am afraid that there will be problems with the screen, but I don’t know how to protect the screen.
      Have you considered using a timed shutdown to protect the screen?I want to listen your way about it.

        @CiaoFox many of us use an infrared motion sensor (PIR) and turn off the screen when no one is around)…

        some use radar devices (which use the PIR module) to detect movement
        some use the camera of a webcam

            @CiaoFox the PIR sensor will wire up to the PI pins just fine
