20140278206 | INFERENCE OF VEHICULAR TRAJECTORY CHARACTERISTICS WITH PERSONAL MOBILE DEVICES - Accurate longitudinal acceleration, lateral acceleration (perpendicular to the principal direction of motion, and velocity, is inferred by processing raw data from a commodity three-axis accelerometer that may be oriented arbitrarily in a moving vehicle (or carried by a moving user), and whose orientation and position may change arbitrarily during the motion. The approach is applicable to a range of applications, including insurance telematics, driver behavior and risk assessment, and road surface quality assessment. | 09-18-2014 |
