Abstract

A system and method for reducing sensor redundancy in sensor-equipped devices includes identifying, via a master device, at least one device within an area. The at least one device is queried to determine at least one of a device status or application status for the at least one device. A configuration of one or more sensors within the at least one device based at least in part on the querying is determined. The one or more sensors within the at least one device is configured to balance quality of service across the master device and the at least one device, based at least in part on the determining.
