==SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANAGING MOTION DETECTION OF AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND ASSOCIATED ELECTRONIC DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18457998 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANAGING MOTION DETECTION OF AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND ASSOCIATED ELECTRONIC DEVICES

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a method for managing sensors in an electronic device. Here are the key points:

* The electronic device detects a change in motion using lower-sensitivity sensor data.
* During a timeout window, the sensors generate an additional set of lower-sensitivity sensor data and a set of higher-sensitivity sensor data.
* The device confirms the change in motion by analyzing the higher-sensitivity sensor data.
* The device determines that the additional lower-sensitivity data does not indicate another change in motion, considering it a false positive.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Mobile devices: This method can be used in smartphones or tablets to improve motion detection accuracy and reduce false positives.
* Gaming consoles: The technology can enhance motion sensing capabilities in gaming consoles, providing more accurate and reliable input for games.
* Wearable devices: Smartwatches or fitness trackers can benefit from this method to improve motion tracking and activity recognition.

Problems solved by this technology:

* False positives: By using both lower-sensitivity and higher-sensitivity sensor data, the device can reduce false positives in motion detection, improving overall accuracy.
* Motion detection accuracy: The method allows for more precise confirmation of motion changes, ensuring that only genuine movements are detected.

Benefits of this technology:

* Improved user experience: By reducing false positives, the device can provide a more reliable and accurate motion detection system, enhancing user interactions and overall device performance.
* Energy efficiency: The use of lower-sensitivity sensor data during the timeout window helps conserve battery life by avoiding unnecessary power consumption from higher-sensitivity sensors.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Embodiments are provided for managing the operation of sensors in an electronic device. According to certain aspects, the electronic device may detect a change in motion from a set of lower-sensitivity sensor data generated by a sensor(s) operating in a lower-sensitivity mode. When the change in motion is detected and during a timeout window, the sensor(s) may generate an additional set of lower-sensitivity sensor data and a set of higher-sensitivity sensor data. The electronic device may initially confirm the change in motion based on analyzing the set of higher-sensitivity sensor data. Further, the electronic device may determine that the additional set of lower-sensitivity does not indicate an additional change in motion, and may deem the confirmation of the change in motion as a false positive.
