LOW-POWER HAND-TRACKING SYSTEM FOR WEARABLE DEVICE
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250110573 titled 'LOW-POWER HAND-TRACKING SYSTEM FOR WEARABLE DEVICE
Original Abstract Submitted
a method for a low-power hand-tracking system is described. in one aspect, a method includes polling a proximity sensor of a wearable device to detect a proximity event, the wearable device includes a low-power processor and a high-power processor, in response to detecting the proximity event, operating a low-power hand-tracking application on the low-power processor based on proximity data from the proximity sensor, and ending an operation of the low-power hand-tracking application in response to at least one of: detecting and recognizing a gesture based on the proximity data, detecting without recognizing the gesture based on the proximity data, or detecting a lack of activity from the proximity sensor within a timeout period based on the proximity data.
