PROVIDING RUNTIME POWER PROFILE TUNING BASED ON EYE STATE IN PROCESSOR-BASED EXTENDED REALITY (XR) DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240103596 titled 'PROVIDING RUNTIME POWER PROFILE TUNING BASED ON EYE STATE IN PROCESSOR-BASED EXTENDED REALITY (XR) DEVICES
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system for tuning the power profile of a processor-based extended reality (XR) device based on the user's eye state. Here are the key points of the innovation:
- Processor applies default power profile
- Detects user's eye close event using eye blink detection circuit
- Selects test power profile in response to eye close event
- Measures operating characteristic of XR device
- Compares operating characteristic with reference range
- Updates power profiles based on comparison
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries such as virtual reality gaming, medical simulations, training simulations, and remote collaboration tools.
Problems Solved
1. Optimizing power consumption in XR devices based on user behavior 2. Enhancing user experience by adjusting power profiles dynamically
Benefits
1. Improved battery life in XR devices 2. Enhanced user comfort and experience 3. Customized power profiles for different user scenarios
Potential Commercial Applications
"Dynamic Power Profile Tuning for XR Devices" could be used in the development of next-generation XR headsets, smart glasses, and other wearable devices to provide a more efficient and personalized user experience.
Possible Prior Art
One potential prior art could be the use of eye tracking technology in XR devices for user interaction and control. However, the specific application of eye state detection for power profile tuning may be a novel aspect of this innovation.
Unanswered Questions
How does the system handle false positives in eye close event detection?
The patent application does not provide details on how the system distinguishes between intentional and unintentional eye close events, which could impact the accuracy of power profile tuning.
What is the impact of frequent power profile updates on device performance?
The frequency of power profile updates based on user eye state changes is not addressed in the patent application. It would be important to understand how often these updates occur and whether they affect the overall performance of the XR device.
Original Abstract Submitted
providing runtime power profile tuning based on eye state in processor-based extended reality (xr) devices is disclosed herein. in this regard, in some exemplary aspects, a processor of a processor-based xr device is configured to apply a default power profile, and detect, using an eye blink detection circuit, an eye close event of a user of the processor-based xr device. in response to detecting the eye close event, the processor selects a test power profile from a plurality of power profiles and applies the test power profile. the processor then measures an operating characteristic of the processor-based xr device and compares the operating characteristic with a corresponding reference range. based on the comparing, the processor updates one or more power profiles of the plurality of power profiles.
