`ABSTRACT
`(57)
`.
`.
`.
`.
`A method comprises determining an idle sample value for a
`dominant axis of a device in an idle state. The method further
`comprises registering a motion of the device, and evaluating
`the motion. The method further comprises waking up the
`device when the analysis of the motion indicates a change in
`the dominant axis of the device and/or a level of acceleration
`
`beyond a threshold.

`METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR WAKING UP A
`DEVICE DUE TO MOTION
`
`FIELD OF THE INVENTION
`
`This invention relates to a method and system for waking
`up a device from an idle state.
`
`BACKGROUND
`
`Technological progress has led to the proliferation of com-
`mercial electronic devices such as portable computers, game
`controllers, GPS devices, digital cameras, cellular tele-
`phones, and personal media players. Continuous improve-
`ments have allowed the users to enjoy many features and
`possible uses from a single mobile device. However, gener-
`ally, the more applications a mobile device has, the faster the
`battery of the mobile device depletes. Therefore, it can be
`difficult to maximize battery life and provide a great user
`experience at the same time.
`
`SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
`
`The present invention provides a method and system to
`wake up a device due to motion. The system determines a
`dominant axis ofa device. The device is placed in an idle state,
`after a period of inactivity or lack ofmotion. A sensor, such as
`an accelerometer, registers a motion of the device. A compu-
`tation logic analyzes the motion data to determine if the
`motion data indicates a real motion. If so, the device is woken
`up.

`
`DETAILED DESCRIPTION
`
`A method and system for waking up a device due to motion
`ofthe device is described. Embodiments of the present inven-
`tion are designed to determine if a device should be woken up
`from an idle state based on the analysis of motion data. In one
`embodiment, motion data for the dominant axis is analyzed
`and the device is woken up from idle state if the motion data
`analysis points to the motion being “real” motion as opposed
`to a mere jostle or glitch.
`The following detailed description of embodiments of the
`invention makes reference to the accompanying drawings in
`which like references indicate similar elements, showing by
`way of illustration specific embodiments of practicing the

`invention. Description of these embodiments is in sufficient
`detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the inven-
`tion. One skilled in the art understands that other embodi-
`
`ments may be utilized and that logical, mechanical, electrical,
`functional and other changes may be made without departing
`from the scope of the present
`invention. The following
`detailed description is, therefore, not to be taken in a limiting
`sense, and the scope of the present invention is defined only
`by the appended claims.
`FIG. 1 is an illustration of one embodiment of moving an
`idle device that may result in waking up the device. The idle
`state is defined, in one embodiment, as a state in which the
`device is not moving, and there is no active application which
`includes user interaction/display. In one embodiment, there
`may be multiple levels of idle state, e.g. where various sub-
`systems are placed in a power-reduced state or not. When the
`device is in the idle state, the device is placed in low-power
`mode. In this state, there is sufficient power maintained to
`monitor at least one sensor. However, other elements and
`applications are turned off to extend the battery life of the
`device. In one embodiment, some applications may remain
`active. For example, the device may be in the idle state, but
`continue a download, utilizing a network and memory store.
`In one embodiment, if at least one subsystem is turned off due
`to lack of device motion, this may be considered an “idle
`state.”
`
`In one embodiment, after a device 110 is placed on a
`horizontal surface 115 such as a desk or chair, after a period of
`inactivity the device 110 goes to the idle state to conserve the
`battery. In one embodiment, the device is placed into the
`pocket, purse, bag, or any other non-moving location, the
`device enters the idle state.
`
`The system, in one embodiment, is designed to ensure that
`when the device is picked up by a user, the device is moved
`from the idle state to an active state rapidly. By initiating the
`transition from the idle state to the active state without requir-
`ing user input, the user wait is reduced. For example, when a
`user 100 picks up the device 110 from its position on the
`horizontal surface 115, the device is designed to wake up. In
`one embodiment, the device 110 is woken up from idle state
`and the user is presented the last active state of the device. In
`one embodiment, this may be sufliciently rapid that by the
`time the device is being viewed by the user, the prior state has
`been restored. In contrast, if the table on which the device is
`resting is shaken, or the purse is jostled, the device should not
`wake up. This reduces power usage, because the device is not
`continuously being woken up from small motions which
`occur when someone walks near a table, sits down, or simi-
`larly causes small motions.
`FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating one embodiment of a
`system 200 of the present invention. In one embodiment, the
`system 200 is a portable electronic device. The system 200 in
`one embodiment comprises motion sensor logic 210, sample
`period logic 230, glitch correcting logic 235, long average
`logic 240, dominant axis logic 245, memory 250, computa-
`tion logic 255, and configuration logic 260.
`In one embodiment, the motion sensor logic 210 comprises
`an
