1. A vehicle in-cabin device for generating data representative of at least one skeletal diagram of at least one occupant within an associated vehicle, the vehicle in-cabin device comprising:
- a processor and a memory;
at least one sensor for generating vehicle interior data, wherein the vehicle interior data is representative of a location of the vehicle in-cabin device within the vehicle;
a vehicle in-cabin device location determination module stored on the memory that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to generate vehicle in-cabin device location data based on the vehicle interior data, wherein the vehicle in-cabin device location data is representative of a location and orientation of the vehicle in-cabin device within the vehicle interior; and
an adjustment algorithm stored on the memory that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to adjust real-time images based on the vehicle in-cabin device location data such that the real-time images are correlated with previously classified image data.

8. A computer-implemented method for automatically registering a location of a vehicle in-cabin device within an interior of a vehicle, the method comprising:
-
positioning the vehicle in-cabin device within the interior of the vehicle; receiving, at a processor of a computing device, vehicle in-cabin device registration location data from a sensor of the vehicle in-cabin device, wherein the vehicle in-cabin device registration location data is representative of at least one of;
a two-dimensional location of the vehicle in-cabin device within the vehicle or a three-dimensional location of the vehicle in-cabin device within the vehicle and at least one of;
a vehicle in-cabin device tilt value, a vehicle in-cabin device pan value, or a vehicle in-cabin device roll value; andadjusting real-time images based on the vehicle in-cabin device registration location data such that the real-time images are correlated with previously classified image data. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-readable instruction that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to automatically register a location of a vehicle in-cabin device within an interior of a vehicle, the non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising:
-
a vehicle in-cabin device registration location data receiving module that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to receive vehicle in-cabin device registration location data from a sensor of the vehicle in-cabin device, wherein the vehicle in-cabin device registration location data is representative of at least one of;
a two-dimensional location of the vehicle in-cabin device within the vehicle or a three-dimensional location of the vehicle in-cabin device within the vehicle and at least one of;
a vehicle in-cabin device tilt value, a vehicle in-cabin device pan value, or a vehicle in-cabin device roll value; andan adjustment algorithm that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to adjust real-time images based on the vehicle in-cabin device registration location data such that the real-time images are correlated with previously classified image data. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
