Abstract
A method, device, system, or article of manufacture is provided for low-power management of multiple sensor chip architecture. In one embodiment, a method comprises, at a computing device that includes a first processor, a second processor and a third processor, receiving, at the first processor, first sensor data from a first sensor; determining, at the first processor, a motion state of the computing device using the first sensor data; in response to determining that the motion state corresponds to a predetermined motion state, activating the second processor; receiving, at the second processor, second sensor data from a second sensor; determining, by the second processor, that the motion state corresponds to the predetermined motion state using the second sensor data; and, in response to determining that the motion state corresponds to the predetermined motion state using the second sensor data, sending the motion state to the third processor.
