Various systems and methods for optimizing use of environmental and operational sensors are described herein. A system for improving sensor efficiency includes object recognition circuitry implementable in a vehicle to detect an object ahead of the vehicle, the object recognition circuitry configured to use an object detection operation to detect the object from sensor data of a sensor array, and the object recognition circuitry configured to use at least one object tracking operation to track the object between successive object detection operations; and a processor subsystem to: calculate a relative velocity of the object with respect to the vehicle; and configure the object recognition circuitry to adjust intervals between successive object detection operations based on the relative velocity of the object.
