INTELLIGENT AND DYNAMIC PROCESSING OF SENSOR READING FIDELITY

A method includes receiving a sensor data stream from a sensor, determining that the sensor data stream is associated with a sensor fidelity rule specifying a triggering event, a fidelity modification, and a modification period, sampling the sensor data stream according to a first sampling interval, responsive to occurrence of a triggering event, changing the first sampling interval to a second sampling interval based on the fidelity modification, wherein the second sampling interval is different from the first sampling interval, determining whether the modification period has elapsed and whether the triggering event is active, and sampling the sensor data stream according to the second sampling interval when it is determined that the modification period has not elapsed and the triggering event is active.
