Reducing startup time of augmented reality experience

A device comprising:

• a display;
• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the device to perform operations comprising:
• operating a low power tracking system to generate first tracking data prior to detecting an application request;
• detecting the application request;
• in response to detecting the application request, causing display, in the display, of content based on the first tracking data while initiating operation of a high power tracking system to generate second tracking data;
• and
• updating the content in the display based on the second tracking data.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a device, cause the device to perform operations comprising:

• operating a low power tracking system to generate first tracking data prior to detecting an application request;
• detecting the application request;
• in response to detecting the application request, causing display, in a display of the device, of content based on the first tracking data while initiating operation of a high power tracking system to generate second tracking data;
