Abstract: A method for calibrating a visual-inertial tracking system is described. A device operates the visual-inertial tracking system without receiving a tracking request from a virtual object display application. In response to operating the visual-inertial tracking system, the device accesses sensor data from sensors at the device. The device identifies, based on the sensor data, a first calibration parameter value of the visual-inertial tracking system and stores the first calibration parameter value. The system detects a tracking request from the virtual object display application. In response to the tracking request, the system accesses the first calibration parameter value and determines a second calibration parameter value from the first calibration parameter value.

Abstract: Visual-inertial tracking of an eyewear device using a rolling shutter camera(s). The eyewear device includes a position determining system. Visual-inertial tracking is implemented by sensing motion of the eyewear device. An initial pose is obtained for a rolling shutter camera and an image of an environment is captured. The image includes feature points captured at a particular capture time. A number of poses for the rolling shutter camera is computed based on the initial pose and sensed movement of the device. The number of computed poses is responsive to the sensed movement of the mobile device. A computed pose is selected for each feature point in the image by matching the particular capture time for the feature point to the particular computed time for the computed pose. The position of the mobile device is determined within the environment using the feature points and the selected computed poses for the feature points.

Abstract: Devices and methods for dynamic power configuration (e.g., reduction) for thermal management (e.g., mitigation) in a wearable electronic device such as an eyewear device. The wearable electronic device monitors its temperature and, responsive to the temperature, configures the services is provides to operate in different modes for thermal mitigation (e.g., to prevent overheating). For example, based on temperature, the wearable electronic device adjusts sensors (e.g., turns cameras on or off, changes the sampling rate, or a combination thereof) and adjusts display components (e.g., adjusted rate at which a graphical processing unit generates images and a visual display is updated). This enables the wearable electronic device to consume less power when temperatures are too high in order to provide thermal mitigation.
