Abstract

Techniques are provided which may be implemented using various methods and/or apparatuses in a mobile device to provide cradle insensitive inertial navigation. An example method for determining alignment changes between a first body frame and a second body frame according to the disclosure includes obtaining one or more images from an image capture device associated with the first body frame in response to detecting a change in alignment between the first body frame and the second body frame, determining a compensation information based on an analysis of the one or more images, and determining a position based on one or more inertial sensors and the compensation information.
