METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CONFIGURING A MOBILE DEVICE BASED ON AN ORIENTATION-BASED USAGE CONTEXT

摘要

Disclosed is an apparatus and method for automatically configuring a mobile device. A mobile device can include a touch sensitive display, a processor, and a plurality of sensors to collect sensor data associated with the mobile device. The mobile device may establish an orientation of the mobile device relative to a user of the mobile device based on the sensor data. The mobile device may then determine a usage context for the mobile device based at least on the established orientation of the mobile device relative to the user. Furthermore, the mobile device may configure one or more components of the mobile device based on the determined usage context.
