Apple iPhone teach rational use of energy

Perhaps the weakest point of modern smartphones is relatively short battery life. Manufacturers are struggling with this disease as they can, but this revolution has not happened yet. As it turned out, in Cupertino we have decided to at least make the most energy efficient ...

US Bureau of registration of patents and trademarks granted Apple a patent for "power electronics control». The patent application describes a system that collects information about the user's relationship with the device on the basis of which regulates the activity of the gadget. Smartphone will remember the time in which he usually goes to recharge, and the place where this process takes place, and the route and schedule of its owner. In addition, the system will take into account the typical scheme for a particular user application usage, including both time of maximum activity, and location.

After processing the above data, Apple's solution is to disable some components of the device in those when the user does not use them, and to report on whether enough energy to the next recharging. The document states that in the event that the system deems the available headroom is too modest, she will adjust a number of parameters, in order to extend the autonomy of the little device.
