1. A device, comprising:
- a global positioning system (GPS) sensor switchable between a high power state and a lower power state; and
a circuit configured to dynamically adjust a power state duty cycle of the GPS sensor based on at least a golf-event interrupt, the power state duty cycle defining a percentage of a period in which the GPS sensor operates in the high power state relative to the lower power state.

Abstract
A device comprises a global positioning system (GPS) sensor and a circuit. The GPS sensor is switchable between a high power state and a lower power state. The circuit is configured to dynamically adjust a power state duty cycle of the GPS sensor based on at least a golf-event interrupt. The power state duty cycle defines a percentage of a period in which the GPS sensor operates in a high power state relative to a lower power state.

11. A method comprising:
-
operating a global positioning system (GPS) sensor according to a default power state duty cycle, the default power state duty cycle defining a percentage of a period in which the GPS sensor operates in a high power state relative to a lower power state; and dynamically increasing the power state duty cycle of the GPS sensor from the default power state duty cycle based on at least a golf-event interrupt. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A computing device, comprising:
-
one or more motion sensors configured to measure swing motion; a first circuit in communication with the one or more motion sensors, the first circuit being configured to translate measurements of swing motion to machine-readable motion data and identify a golf swing of the golfer from the machine-readable motion data; a global positioning system (GPS) sensor switchable between a high power state and a lower power state; and a second circuit configured to dynamically adjust a power state duty cycle of the GPS sensor responsive to the golf swing being identified, the power state duty cycle defining a percentage of a period in which the GPS sensor operates in the high power state relative to the lower power state. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
