Abstract

A method and apparatus for controlling embedded raw image data within a display having internal memory. The method includes sending a frame of code and a final compilation of raw image data to the internal memory of the display from a primary host processor prior to the primary host processor entering a sleep state. When the primary host processor has entered a sleep state, control of the raw image data is redirected to at least one secondary host processor. The secondary host processor reads the frame of code within the internal memory of the display and instructs the display to perform an image-related behavior output that may include updating the display itself based on the frame of code found in the internal memory of the display.
