Abstract:
One or more location analysis computing devices and methods are disclosed herein for determining the position of a mobile device (smartphone, tablet computer) within an interior of a vehicle. The position of the mobile device may be calculated by detecting changes in accelerometer data. The accelerometer data may first need to be translated to determine corresponding axes, since the device may not be right side up (e.g., in a pocket). The vehicle may travel over road discontinuities such as bumps, and calculating the position of the mobile device may be based on the different magnitude and angle resulting from a first tire and a second tire hitting the bump. Data from vehicle sensors or other mobile device sensors may also be used in the calculating. Once the position is determined, commands may be sent to the mobile device to deactivate certain functionality, or to a remote server for further processing.

Claim (Index 17):
A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing instructions, which when executed by a processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to:\n receive vehicle sensor data collected by sensors of a vehicle, the vehicle sensor data comprising accelerometer data; detect a first occurrence of an event in the translated vehicle sensor data, wherein detecting the first occurrence of the event comprises determining that a first change in a magnitude of the accelerometer data exceeds a first predetermined threshold; receive mobile device sensor data collected by sensors of a mobile device located within the vehicle, the mobile device sensor data comprising further accelerometer data; detect a second occurrence of the event in the mobile device sensor data; calculate, based on the detected first occurrence of the event, a first occurrence vector comprising a first occurrence magnitude and a first occurrence angle; calculate, based on the detected second occurrence of the event, a second occurrence vector comprising a second occurrence magnitude and a second occurrence angle; compare the calculated first occurrence vector and the calculated second occurrence vector; and determine, based on the comparison, a position of the mobile device within the vehicle.
