1. A method comprising:
- capturing an image of a scene by an image capturing unit of a device that includes at least one sensor;
determining relative device orientation of the device based, at least in part, on determined location of at least one vanishing point in the captured image of the scene; and
performing one or more calibration operations for the at least one sensor based, at least in part, on the determined relative device orientation.
