Information handling system mouse with motion detection wake

A method for managing a mouse power consumption, the method comprising:

• detecting a predetermined condition of an idle state;
• in response to the detecting the predetermined conditions, cutting off power to a processing resource and position sensor of the mouse;
• detecting motion of the mouse by closing of a power circuit of a motion power switch;
• and
• in response to the detecting motion, applying power from the closing of the power circuit to apply power to the processing resource.

A mouse comprising:

• a chassis;
• a position sensor coupled to the chassis, the position sensor operable to detect movement of the chassis to report the movement for cursor position control of a cursor presented at a display;
• a processing resource coupled to the chassis and interfaced with position sensor, the processing resource operable to cutoff power to the processing resource and the position sensor;
• a motion power switch, the motion power switch operable to restore power to the processing resource, the motion power switch having an open switch that consumes no power until motion closes the switch;
• a first switch interfacing the processing resource and position sensor with power;
• a second switch interfacing the motion power switch with power;
• and
• non-transitory memory interfaced with the processing resource and storing instructions that when executed on the processing resource cause detection of a predetermined condition associated with an idle state of the mouse and in response to open the first switch to cut off all power to the processing resource and position sensor, the instructions further opening the second switch to cut off power to the motion power switch when the first switch is closed.
