Abstract
Eyewear devices that include two SoCs that share processing workload. Instead of using a single SoC located either on the left or right side of the eyewear devices, the two SoCs have different assigned responsibilities to operate different devices and perform different processes to balance workload. In one example, the eyewear device utilizes a first SoC to operate a first color camera, a second color camera, a first display, and a second display. The first SoC and a second SoC are configured to selectively operate a first and second computer vision (CV) camera algorithms. The first SoC is configured to perform visual odometry (VIO), track hand gestures of the user, and provide depth from stereo images. This configuration provides organized logistics to efficiently operate various features, and balanced power consumption.
