Abstract
A hand-tracking input pipeline dimming system for an AR system is provided. The AR system deactivates the hand-tracking input pipeline and places a camera component of the hand-tracking input pipeline in a limited operational mode. The AR system uses the camera component to detect initiation of a gesture by a user of the AR system and in response to detecting the initiation of the gesture, the AR system activates the hand-tracking input pipeline and places the camera component in a fully operational mode.
