Abstract
A method of determining a position of a mobile device in a vehicle during a drive includes measuring at least one first acceleration magnitude of the mobile device in a gravity direction with at least one sensor of the mobile device, measuring at least one second acceleration magnitude of the mobile device in the gravity direction with the at least one sensor of the mobile device, the at least one second acceleration magnitude separated in time from the at least one first acceleration magnitude, comparing the at least one first acceleration magnitude with the at least one second acceleration magnitude, and based on a result of the comparing, predicting the position of the mobile device in the vehicle.
