Abstract: Described herein are techniques to enable a mobile device to perform multi-source estimation of an altitude for a location. A baseline altitude may be determined at ground level for a location and used to calibrate a barometric pressure sensor on the mobile device. The calibrated barometric pressure sensor can then estimate changes in altitude relative to ground level based on detected pressure differentials, allowing a relative altitude to ground to be determined. Baseline calibration for the barometric sensor calibration can be performed to determine an ambient ground-level barometric pressure.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for crash detection on one or more mobile devices (e.g., smartwatch and/or smartphone). In some embodiments, a method comprises: detecting, with at least one processor, a crash event on a crash device; extracting, with the at least one processor, multimodal features from sensor data generated by multiple sensing modalities of the crash device; computing, with the at least one processor, a plurality of crash decisions based on a plurality of machine learning models applied to the multimodal features; and determining, with the at least one processor, that a severe vehicle crash has occurred involving the crash device based on the plurality of crash decisions and a severity model.

Abstract: Waypoints can be automatically created by monitoring network wireless signal strength to help a user of a mobile device in a non-urban location to find a previous location with known network connectivity and make emergency calls. In some embodiments, a backtrack route is displayed on the mobile device to the closest previous location with network connectivity. In some embodiments, for privacy considerations, access to waypoint information stored in a secured storage/database is restricted based on the determination of location state, and backtrack routes are displayed in stages.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for submersion detection and underwater depth and low-latency temperature estimation. In an embodiment, a method comprises: determining a first set of vertical accelerations obtained from an inertial sensor of a wearable device; determining a second set of vertical accelerations obtained from pressure data; determining a first feature associated with a correlation between the first and second sets of vertical accelerations; and determining that the wearable device is submerged or not submerged in water based on a machine learning model applied to the first feature. In another embodiment, a method comprises: determining a submersion state of a wearable device; and responsive to the submersion state being submerged, computing a forward estimate of water temperature based on measured ambient water temperature at the water surface, a temperature error lookup table, and a rate of change of the ambient water temperature.
