Claim:
1. A method comprising: designating a first communication path between a first computing device and a second computing device as a line-of-sight path between the first and the second computing devices, the first computing device being in a first orientation; detecting that the first computing device is in a second orientation different from the first orientation; determining a second communication path between the first computing device and the second computing device; determining that the first communication path is rotated from the second communication path by a first angle in a first direction; determining that the first communication path is rotated from the second communication path by a second angle in a second direction; determining that the first angle is smaller than the second angle; determining, based at least in part on motion data generated by one or more motion sensors of the first computing device, that the first computing device has moved from the first orientation to the second orientation in the first direction; and designating the second communication path as the line-of-sight path.
