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.

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 an initial set of sensor data generated by a sensor(s). A memory cache may store the initial set of sensor data or additional sensor data generated by the sensor(s). The electronic device may initiate a supplemental algorithm that analyzes the cached data. Based on the analysis of the cached data and whether the change in motion is confirmed or whether additional motion is detected, the electronic device may manage the operation of the supplemental algorithm.

A method and a system for rendering VR video are disclosed. In the method, a base video model and an enhancement video model are built respectively, with UV coordinates being initialized. base video segments and enhancement video segments are obtained according to a user's viewport. A base video texture is generated according to pixel information of the base video segments and the UV coordinates of the base video model. An enhancement video texture is generated according to pixel information of the enhancement video segments and the UV coordinates of the enhancement video model. Pixel information is reconstructed by adding the base video texture and the enhancement video texture with each other according to alignment coordinates. An image is drawn according to the reconstructed pixel information. The method reduces data transmission and improves rendering efficiency without affecting the user's viewing experience.
