Devices and methods for dynamic power configuration (e.g., reduction) for thermal management (e.g., mitigation) in a wearable electronic device such as an eyewear device. The wearable electronic device monitors its temperature and, responsive to the temperature, configures the services is provides to operate in different modes for thermal mitigation (e.g., to prevent overheating). For example, based on temperature, the wearable electronic device adjusts sensors (e.g., turns cameras on or off, changes the sampling rate, or a combination thereof) and adjusts display components (e.g., adjusted rate at which a graphical processing unit generates images and a visual display is updated). This enables the wearable electronic device to consume less power when temperatures are too high in order to provide thermal mitigation. 1. An eyewear device that provides augmented reality services , the eyewear device comprising:a frame configured to be worn on a head of a user;a camera system supported by the frame, the camera system comprising a first camera and a second camera;a display system supported by the frame;a temperature sensor supported by the frame, the temperature sensor configured to detect a temperature of the eyewear device; and run application services of the eyewear device, at least one of the application services configured to use at least one of the camera system or the display system;', 'monitor the temperature of the temperature sensor;', 'compare the monitored temperature to a threshold temperature;', 'notify the at least one application service of an upcoming change from a first of the at least two power configuration modes to a second of the at least two power configuration modes responsive to the monitored temperature reaching the threshold temperature; and', 'change the electronics from the first power configuration mode to the second power configuration mode after notifying the at least one application service., 'electronics supported by the frame, the ...
