Abstract
Using a pressure sensor of a mobile device to improve the accuracy of determined contexts. Particular embodiments described herein include machines that determine a context of a mobile device, and determine if the determined context is accurate using multiple measurements of pressure from a pressure sensor of the mobile device.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- determining a context of a mobile device;
- and
- determining if the determined context is accurate using a plurality of measurements of pressure from a pressure sensor of the mobile device, wherein determining if the determined context is accurate comprises:
- generating the plurality of measurements of pressure using the pressure sensor of the mobile device during a time range;
- determining a characteristic of the plurality of measurements of pressure;
- determining if the characteristic meets a threshold condition;
- and
- upon determining that the characteristic meets the threshold condition, determining that the context is accurate, and generating an output specifying that the context is accurate.
