Abstract
The subject technology provides structured-shutdown-mode versions of a video view of a physical setting of an electronic device. An electronic device may provide, at a first power consumption rate, a video view of a portion of the physical setting, the portion being physically blocked from being directly viewed by a user of the device, by the electronic device itself. Structured-shutdown-mode versions of a video view may be provided, at a second power consumption rate lower than the first power consumption rate, to a display of an electronic device when the device determines that it is in a low power or failure state. In this way, the electronic device can reduce the functionality and power consumption of the display in a structured manner, to continue to provide a version of the video view to the user in the low power or failure mode state.
