Abstract
Calibration of vehicle and smartphone coordinate systems includes receiving acceleration data from an accelerometer of the smartphone. The smartphone identifies a Y-axis, a Z-axis, and an X-axis of the coordinate system of the vehicle relative to a coordinate system of the smartphone from the raw acceleration data. The smartphone generates processed acceleration data by transforming the raw acceleration data into the coordinate system of the smartphone. The processed acceleration data is used to detect driving conditions of the vehicle.
