Abstract
Visual-inertial tracking of an eyewear device using sensors. The eyewear device monitors the sensors of a visual inertial odometry system (VIOS) that provide input for determining a position of the device within its environment. The eyewear device determines the status of the VIOS based information from the sensors and adjusts the plurality of sensors (e.g., by turning on/off sensors, changing the sampling rate, of a combination thereof) based on the determined status. The eyewear device then determines the position of the eyewear device within the environment using the adjusted plurality of sensors.
