Abstract:
Described herein are devices and techniques for managing power consumption of a position tracking device. The position tracking device may be a virtual reality (VR) controller having multiple optical sensors oriented to receive optical signals from different directions. A stationary optical emitter projects a laser line into a space and repeatedly scans the laser line through the space. For any given scan, some of the sensors may detect the laser line and some of the sensors may not detect the laser line because they are oriented away from the emitter or because of a blocking object. When an individual sensor fails to detect a laser scan, that sensor is disabled for one or more subsequent laser scans in order to reduce power consumption of the VR controller.

Claim (Index 20):
The position tracking device of  claim 15 , further comprising an inertial measurement unit (IMU), wherein the optical signal comprises a first optical signal, and the acts further comprising:\n identifying a third optical sensor of the optical sensors that did not receive a second optical signal during a third emitter cycle; receiving, from the IMU, an indication that the position tracking device is moving; and enabling the second optical sensor during a fourth emitter cycle in response to receiving the indication.
