Device orientation initialization
A device implementing a system for device orientation initialization includes at least one processor configured to determine that the device is within or coupled to a vehicle in motion. The at least one processor is configured to employ, in response to the determining, a first position estimation model to estimate a position of the device, and detect occurrence of a predefined condition with respect to employing the first position estimation model. The at least one processor is further configured to switch, in response to detecting occurrence of the predefined condition, from employing the first position estimation model to employing a second position estimation model to estimate the position of the device. The first and second position estimation model apply different respective error state metrics in estimating the position of the device.
