Dynamic refresh rate adjustment

An apparatus for dynamic refresh rate adjustment by a device, comprising:

• a processor,
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• determine a set of frames for display on the device;
• determine an average frame rate for the set of frames over a duration based at least in part on a respective frame rate associated with each frame of the set of frames;
• select a new refresh rate based at least in part on the average frame rate for the set of frames;
• and
• switch, based at least in part on selecting the new refresh rate, from a current refresh rate of the display to the new refresh rate by deactivating a first timing register of the device and activating a second timing register of the device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for dynamic refresh rate adjustment by a device, the code comprising instructions executable by a processor to:

• determine a set of frames for display on the device;
• determine an average frame rate for the set of frames over a duration based at least in part on a respective frame rate associated with each frame of the set of frames;
• select a new refresh rate based at least in part on the average frame rate for the set of frames;
• and
• switch, based at least in part on selecting the new refresh rate, from a current refresh rate of the display to the new refresh rate by deactivating a first timing register of the device and activating a second timing register of the device.
