Detecting static images and reducing resource usage on an electronic device
First Claim
1. An electronic device for detecting static images and reducing resource usage, comprising:
- a processor;
memory in electronic communication with the processor;
instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable to;
determine image memory;
set a timer;
monitor the image memory;
determine whether there is a write access request for the image memory;
determine whether an image change threshold is reached if there is a write access request;
determine whether a time threshold has been reached based on the timer if there is not a write access request for the image memory; and
reduce display resource usage if the time threshold has been reached, wherein reducing display resource usage comprises reducing at least one display resource that is not image memory.

Abstract
An electronic device for detecting static images and reducing resource usage is described. The electronic device includes a processor and instructions stored in memory. The electronic device determines image memory. The electronic device also sets a timer. The electronic device further monitors the image memory. The electronic device also determines whether there is a write access request for the image memory. Furthermore, the electronic device determines whether a time threshold has been reached based on the timer if there is not a write access request for the image memory. The electronic device also reduces display resource usage if the time threshold has been reached.
