Abstract
In one example, a method comprises: receiving an indication that an object is within a distance from an array of ultrasonic transducers; based on the indication, configuring a subset of the array of ultrasonic transducers to perform an ultrasonic sensing operation on the object; obtaining, from the subset of the array of ultrasonic transducers, an output of the ultrasonic sensing operation; and performing an action based on the output of the ultrasonic sensing operation.
