  • MOTION STATE DETECTION FOR MOBILE DEVICE
    Publication number: 20110172918
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems are provided to indicate whether a mobile device is at rest or in motion based, at least in part, on inertial sensor measurements obtained from one or more inertial sensors located on-board the mobile device. Inertial sensor measurements may be combined with navigation signals obtained from a satellite or terrestrial based navigation system in order to refine position, orientation, velocity, and/or acceleration estimates for the mobile device.
