Abstract
Method for controlling movement of a mobile device includes obtaining an analyzeable video from an imager on the device during its movement by obtaining at least one video from the imager, and analyzing, using a processor, each video to determine presence of a fixed-in-position object in multiple sequentially obtained frames until a video is obtained including at least one fixed-in-position object in multiple sequentially obtained frames which constitutes the analyzeable video. This video is analyzed on a frame by frame basis to determine distance and direction moved by the device, which is analyzed relative to predetermined distance and direction intended for movement of the device to determine any differences, which result in changes in movement of the device. Relocation of the device is achieved by recognizing a previously imaged, fixed object in subsequent frames and comparing the position of the device at both times, with a deviation resulting in relocation.
