Display System - A simplified explanation of the abstract

Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes a display system that consists of a head-mounted display unit and a wake control system. The head-mounted display unit is capable of providing content to the user in two different power states: a low-power state and a high-power state. The high-power state consumes more power but provides the content with better quality. The wake control system is responsible for determining when to switch to the high-power state. It does this by assessing certain wake criteria. Initially, it assesses a first wake criterion with low power. If this criterion is satisfied, it then assesses a second wake criterion with higher power. If the second wake criterion is also satisfied, the wake control system triggers the head-mounted display unit to operate in the high-power state.
Original Abstract Submitted
A display system includes a head-mounted display unit and a wake control system. The head-mounted display unit provides content to a user and is operable in a low-power state and a high-power state that consumes more power to provide the content to the user than the low-power state. The wake control system determines when to operate in the high-power state. The wake control system may assess a first wake criterion with low power, assess a second wake criterion with higher power than the first wake criterion upon satisfaction of the first wake criterion, and cause the head-mounted display unit to operate in the high-power state upon satisfaction of the second wake criterion.
