Abstract
A system and method for performing optical navigation addresses M×N photosensitive elements of an image sensor array to capture first frames of image data of a navigation surface when set to a first operational mode such that each of the first frames of image data includes M×N sampled signals, and addresses at most the M×N photosensitive elements of the image sensor array to capture second frames of image data of the navigation surface when set to a second operational mode such that each of said second frames of image data includes less than M×N sampled signals.
