Abstract
A system for determining an orientation of a mobile device with respect to a vehicle. The system comprises at least one computer processor programmed to: receive local motion information regarding the mobile device; receive global displacement information regarding the mobile device; and based on the local motion information regarding the mobile device and the global displacement information regarding the mobile device, determine the orientation of the mobile device with respect to the vehicle. A method for determining an orientation of a mobile device with respect to a vehicle, and at least one computer-readable storage medium having instructions recorded thereon which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform the method.
