Performing a combination localization technique includes determining a target localization parameter, selecting a combination localization technique in accordance with the target localization parameter, including a first localization technique associated with a first power error time profile, and a second localization technique associated with a second power error time profile. A device location is determined using the first localization technique for a first time period in accordance with the first power error time profile, and an updated device location is determined using the second localization technique in response to a triggering condition. A further updated device location is determined using the first localization technique following the first time period based on the updated device location. At least one of a combined energy value and a combined maximum error rate for the combination localization technique satisfies the target localization parameter.

Dynamic and intermittent localization

The present disclosure describes systems and methods associated with selective powering of an electronic display in response to operating conditions, additional data, and/or predicting that the electronic display is not going to be viewed or visible. By selectively enabling the electronic display between power states based on a prediction of when a viewer is expected to view the electronic display, a perceivably always-on electronic display may be provided without the electronic display being always-on, thereby balancing consumer interests with technical requirements of a relatively long battery life and correspondingly low power consumption.

Predictive display power control systems and methods

The present disclosure describes systems and methods associated with selective powering of an electronic display in response to sensed data indicating that the electronic display is not visible. By selectively enabling the electronic display between power states based on whether the electronic display is visible, a perceivably always-on electronic display may be provided without the electronic display being always-on, thereby balancing consumer interests with technical requirements of a relatively long battery life and correspondingly low power consumption.

Sensor-based display power control systems and methods

An electronic device may include a display panel. When content of an image frame is expected to consume relatively higher amounts of power, a controller of the electronic device may operate a switch to change a power supply of the display panel to be a power management integrated circuit of the electronic device. However, when content of an image frame is expected to consume relatively less amounts of power, the controller may operate the switch to change the power supply of the display panel to be a power supply of an electronic display, such as a power supply used to power driver circuitry of the electronic display.

Electronic display pipeline power management systems and methods

In an embodiment, a system may include one or more processors forming central processing units (CPUs) in the system, a display controller configured to display frames on a display device, a memory controller configured to control a memory, and a power management circuit. The power management circuit may be configured to establish one of a plurality of power states in the system. In a first power state, the display controller and the memory controller are powered on while the CPUs are powered off. The display controller may be configured to read a plurality of prerendered frames from the memory and display the plurality of prerendered frames at times specified for each of the plurality of prerendered frames.

System on a chip that drives display when CPUs are powered down

A device implementing a system for displaying an image includes a processor configured to, generate, during a first power state of a device, a data structure specifying image frames and a respective display time for each of the image frames, and retrieve, during a second power state of the device and from the data structure, an image frame based on the respective display time for the image frame. The at least one processor is further configured to display, during a third power state of the device, the retrieved image frame on a display of the device.

Power management for image display

An electronic device may include a display panel to display images based on corresponding image data and an image source to pre-render a flip-book including a first image frame for display at a first target presentation time and a second image frame for display at a second target presentation time. The electronic device may also include a display pipeline coupled between the display panel and the image source having image data processing circuitry to process image data for display. The electronic device may also include a controller to instruct the display pipeline to process image data, to determine a power-on time based on a target presentation time, and to instruct the display pipeline to power-gate the image data processing circuitry upon completion of the processing of image data and until the power-on time is reached.

Electronic display power management systems and methods

An electronic device includes an enclosure having a transparent cover defining a touch-sensitive surface, a display positioned within the enclosure and below the transparent cover, and a haptic device configured to produce a haptic output along the touch-sensitive surface. The haptic device may include a battery element electrically coupled to the display, a magnetic element, and a coil assembly fixed with respect to the enclosure and configured to induce an oscillatory movement of the battery element parallel to the display to produce the haptic output. In other examples, the coil assembly may be coupled to the battery element and the first and second magnetic elements may be fixed with respect to the enclosure.

Portable electronic device having a haptic device with a moving battery element

Methods and systems for producing circuitry using stackable passive components are discussed. More specifically, the present disclosure provides designs and fabrication methods for production of stackable devices that may be used as components in circuitry such as filters and impedance matching adaptors. Such components may be used to save space in printed circuit boards. Moreover, stackable passive components may be dual components, which may be improve the electrical performance in certain types of circuits such as matched component filters.

Stackable passive component

In situations with reduced image changes, display panels, such as the ones disclosed herein, may reduce their power consumption by performing self-refresh cycles, in which they may display locally stored data in the display panel instead of retrieving it from an image buffer. Methods and circuitry for management of the self-refresh cycle may reduce jitter, luminance errors, and/or flickers that may be caused by untimely self-refresh cycles that may occur as a result of latency in the image buffer. In some implementations, the display panel may have a dedicated low latency input that notifies an arrival of an incoming image. In some implementations, the self-refresh cycles of the panel may be managed by a host or a buffer that is responsible for sending the images.

Collision avoidance schemes for displays

Systems and methods described in this disclosure are related to fabrication and utilization of two-terminal electrical components that may have terminations with reduced width. Components, such as the ones described herein may be used to increase the density of components in electrical devices, as they may reduce a separation distance between devices that lead to solder bridging. Methods for fabrication are also described, including the use of ceramic layers that may provide reduction in parasitic capacitance and/or inductances.
