Abstract
Various embodiments describe systems and methods for utilizing a reduced amount of processing capacity for incoming data over time, and, in response to detecting a scene-change-event, notify one or more data processors that a scene-change-event has occurred, and cause incoming data to be processed as new data. In some embodiments, an incoming frame can be compared with a reference frame to determine a difference between the reference frame and the incoming frame. The reference frame may be correlated to a latest scene-change-event. In response to a determination that the difference does not meet one or more difference criteria, a user interface or at least one processor of the computing device can be notified to reduce processing of incoming data over time. In response to a determination that the difference meets the one or more difference criteria, the user interface or the at least one processor can be notified that a scene-change-event has occurred. Incoming data to the computing device is then treated as new and processed as those under an active condition. The current incoming frame can be selected as a new reference frame for detecting next scene-change-event.
