Abstract
A head-mounted device is provided that includes one or more cameras configured to acquire a raw video feed and one or more displays configured to present a passthrough video feed to a user. Generation of the passthrough video feed can involve processing the raw video feed using an image signal processor and auxiliary compute blocks. One or more of the auxiliary compute blocks can be bypassed in response to detecting one or more failures associated with the auxiliary compute blocks. Configured and operated in this way, the head-mounted device can fall back to a more reliable passthrough video feed without having to power cycle the head-mounted device when a failure occurs.
