# Dynamic configuration

A common scenario in Edge AI applications is changing the image resolution at runtime
        for minimal frame loss or gap in the display, or adding and removing several streams for
        camera reconfiguration. The dynamic configuration sample applications support these runtime
        changes.

- **[Activate-deactivate streams at runtime](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70020-50/topic/gst-activate-deactivate-streams-runtime.html)**  

The **gst-activate-deactivate-streams-runtime-example** application allows you to         change the resolution dynamically without the need to reconfigure the camera         sensor.
- **[Add-remove streams at runtime](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70020-50/topic/gst-add-remove-streams-runtime.html)**  

The **gst-add-remove-streams-runtime** application allows you to add or remove         several camera streams dynamically during runtime.
