    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for head dimension estimation for spatial audio applications. In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining, using one or more processors of an audio headset worn on a user's head, acceleration samples and rotation rate samples over a specified time window while the user rotates their head, the acceleration samples and rotation rate samples measured using motion sensors in the headset; determining a function that relates the acceleration samples to the rotation rate samples; comparing the function to a plurality of reference functions, where each reference function corresponds to a different head dimension in a nominal range of head dimensions; and estimating a dimension of the user's head based on the comparing.

    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for head tracking state detection based on correlated motion of a source device and a headset communicatively coupled to the source device. In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining, using one or more processors of a source device, source device motion data from a source device and headset motion data from a headset; determining, using the one or more processors, correlation measures using the source device motion data and the headset motion data; updating, using the one or more processors, a motion tracking state based on the determined correlation measures; and initiating head pose tracking in accordance with the updated motion tracking state.

    Abstract: A wearable computing device can detect device-raising gestures. For example, onboard motion sensors of the device can detect movement of the device in real time and infer information about the spatial orientation of the device. Based on analysis of signals from the motion sensors, the device can detect a raise gesture, which can be a motion pattern consistent with the user moving the device's display into his line of sight. In response to detecting a raise gesture, the device can activate its display and/or other components. Detection of a raise gesture can occur in stages, and activation of different components can occur at different stages.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a mobile device can analyze motion sensor data during a voice call to determine whether the mobile device is on a stationary object or worn on a user's body (e.g., in the lap or pocket of a user of the mobile device). The mobile device can adjust the transmit power level of the telephony transceiver during the voice call based on the determination.

    Abstract: In some implementations, techniques may include at a plurality of times while a user of the first portable device is moving with the first portable device: performing ranging at a respective position with a second device to determine a respective distance, thereby determining a plurality of respective distances, where the second device is stationary; obtaining raw measurements from a motion sensor of the first portable device. In addition, the device may include using the raw measurements at the plurality of times to determine relative positions at the plurality of times, the relative position from an initial position. The techniques may include estimating a second position of the second device that optimizes a loss function that includes differences of the respective distances at the relative positions and the actual distance between the relative positions and the second position.
