1. A method comprising:
- accessing, by a first processor, raw angular motion sensor (AMS) data from an AMS configured to sense angular motion of a mobile device having a display capable of rendering a display image;
determining a state of motion of the mobile device based at least in part on the raw AMS data;
in response to determining that the state of motion of the mobile device is a state of relative motion, initiating transmission of AMS data from the first processor to a second processor; and
processing the AMS data by the second processor to determine whether to perform a rotation of the display image, where the determination of whether to rotate the display image is based at least in part on applying at least one pre-defined criterion to the AMS data.

Abstract
Techniques for display rotation are disclosed. In one aspect, raw angular motion sensor (AMS) data can be accessed. A motion state of the mobile device can be determined based at least in part on processing the raw AMS data. AMS data can be further processed to determine whether to perform a rotation of the display image based at least in part on applying at least one pre-defined criterion to the AMS data.

8. An apparatus comprising:
-
a first processor configured to; access raw angular motion sensor (AMS) data from an AMS, execute a relative motion detection (RMD) algorithm to determine that a state of motion of the mobile device is a state of relative motion, and determine whether to initiate a transmission of AMS data based at least in part on a result of the RMD algorithm; and a second processor configured to; receive and process the AMS data to make a determination as to whether to rotate a display image on a display of the mobile device, where the determination is based at least in part on applying at least one pre-defined criterion to the AMS data. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. An apparatus comprising:
-
a first processor; an angular motion sensor (AMS) configured to sense angular motion of a mobile device having a display capable of rendering a display image, and configured to generate and transmit raw AMS data to the first processor, wherein the first processor is configured to; access the raw AMS data from the AMS; execute a relative motion detection (RMD) algorithm to determine that a state of motion of the mobile device is a state of relative motion; and make a determination as to whether to initiate a transmission of AMS data to a second processor based at least in part on a result of the RMD algorithm. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
