Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes storing a plurality of acceleration profiles in a mobile device; receiving accelerometer data from an accelerometer in the mobile device; correlating the accelerometer data with one accelerometer profile in the plurality of accelerometer profiles; and activating a user application of the mobile device that is associated with the correlated accelerometer profile. Each acceleration profile can correspond to a sequence of acceleration forces a mobile device would be subjected to when carried with a user during an activity that corresponds to the correlated acceleration profile.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A computer-implemented method comprising: storing, by a computing system, a plurality of acceleration profiles, wherein each acceleration profile from the plurality of acceleration profiles is associated with: (i) a respective sequence of acceleration forces to which an accelerometer in the computing system would be subject during a respective activity, (ii) a respective time or a respective geographical location, and (iii) a respective application prog…
