Computing System with Motion-Detecting Device Configuration Feature

A computing system comprising a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon program instructions that upon execution by the processor, cause performance of a set of acts for use in connection with a media device and a motion-detecting device mounted to the media device, the set of acts comprising:

• obtaining motion data associated with the motion-detecting device;
• providing the obtained motion data to a trained classifier, wherein the trained classifier is configured to use at least motion data as runtime input data to generate at least device type data as runtime output data;
• responsive to providing the obtained motion data to the trained classifier, receiving from the trained classifier corresponding device type data generated by the trained classifier;
• using at least the received device type data to identify a device type of the media device;
• using at least the identified device type of the media device as a basis to select a set of configuration parameters for the motion-detecting device;
• and
• causing the motion-detecting device to be configured according to the selected set of configuration parameters.
