Embodiment Construction
[0017] The invention relates to a method and system for reducing power consumption in a mobile device through the use of sensors. In particular, an array of sensors are provided on a device, and their combined outputs are used to affect the power consumption of the device. In this manner, much longer device operational lifetimes may be achieved without a decrease in device usability.
[0018] Referring to FIG. 1, a basic network topology is shown within which a mobile device may be used according to an embodiment of the invention. Typically, a mobile device 101 is transiently connected to a closest access point 103 of a plurality of access points 103, 105, 107. The access points 103, 105, 107 serve to interface the mobile device 101 to an infrastructure 109 such as a network. The access points may be for example wireless network access points such as according to the IEEE 802.11 standard for mobile computers and other devices, or cell phone cell transceivers where the mobile device 10...
