System and methods of reducing energy consumption by synchronizing sensors

摘要

Aspects of the invention are related to a method for synchronizing a first sensor clock of a first sensor. The exemplary method comprises: correcting the first sensor clock for a first time, transferring data from the first sensor, and correcting the first sensor clock for a second time, wherein a time interval between two corrections of the first sensor clock is selected such that the first sensor clock is sufficiently aligned with a processor clock of a processor over the time interval.
