rest state
Default inactive mode
Rest state describes the default or baseline condition of a system when it's not actively engaged or processing.
In computing, a device in rest state consumes minimal power while remaining ready to resume full operation.
In physiology, rest state refers to the body or brain's activity when not performing specific tasks: Researchers studied brain connectivity during the rest state.
The term implies readiness—not off, but waiting.
