A method for calibrating a device is described. The device accesses magnetometer data of a magnetometer sensor in the device, and accelerometer data of an accelerometer sensor in the device. The device determines a first position and a second position of the device based on the magnetometer data and the accelerometer data. The device determines a first magnetic vector based on the magnetometer data at the first position of the device, and a second magnetic vector based on the magnetometer data at the second position of the device. The device then assigns the first magnetic vector to the first position of the device, and the second magnetic vector to the second position of the device.

Automatic calibration of contact sensor

A device to automatically provide differing information levels according to a predetermined social hierarchy includes a memory and a processor. The memory stores social templates corresponding to unique social signatures and being selectable to provide, for each level of the predetermined social hierarchy, a corresponding differing amount of information to each member of the predetermined social hierarchy and/or a social networking service. The processor receives sensor data from a sensor set which detects sensor data related to an environment of a communication device, creates a detected social signature from the received sensor data, determines which of the social signatures of the social templates has the greatest correspondence with the created social signature, retrieves from the memory the determined one social template having the greatest correspondence, and provides only as much information as allowed in the retrieved social template.
