  • Patent number: 12249092
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a computing system accesses a set of 3D locations associated with features in an environment previously captured by a camera from a previous camera pose. The computing system determines a predicted camera pose using the previous camera pose and motion measurements generated using a motion sensor associated with the camera. The computing system projects the set of 3D locations toward the predicted camera pose and onto a 2D image plane associated with the camera. The computing system generates, based on the projected set of 3D locations on the 2D image plane, an activation map specifying a subset of the pixel sensors of the camera that are to be activated. The computing system instructs, using the activation map, the camera to activate the subset of pixel sensors to capture a new image of the environment. The computing system reads pixel values of the new image.
