Patent number: 11833963Abstract: A method for determining usage of a mobile device in a vehicle by a user includes receiving a first value indicating an “off” state of a screen of the mobile device at a first time, obtaining first movement measurements, and computing a gravity diff angle (GDA) value for the first movements. The method also includes determining that the GDA value exceeds a predefined GDA threshold value, computing summary statistics for the first movements, and classifying the summary statistics as corresponding to mobile device usage starting. The method further includes classifying the first movements of the mobile device as usage movements in response to determining that the GDA value exceeds the predefined GDA threshold, classifying the summary statistics as corresponding to mobile device usage starting, or both, and generating an indication of mobile device usage in response to classifying the first movements of the mobile device as usage movements.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2022Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: Cambridge Mobile Telematics Inc.Inventors: Brad Cordova, Rafi Finegold, Dan Shiebler
