System and method for determining a seat location of a mobile computing device in a multi-seat environment
First Claim
1. A method for associating a mobile computing device with a particular seat in a seating environment, the method comprising:
- collecting first sensor data from device sensors of a first mobile computing device based on activity detected within the seating environment;
determining, for each of a plurality of seats in the seating environment, a degree of correlation with the first mobile computing device based at least in part on the first sensor data; and
associating the first mobile computing device with the seat, among the plurality of seats, having the highest degree of correlation with the first mobile computing device.

Abstract
A system and method for associating a mobile computing device with a particular seat in a seating environment. The system collects first sensor data from device sensors of a first mobile computing device based on activity detected within the seating environment. The system then determines, for each of a plurality of seats in the seating environment, a degree of correlation with the mobile computing device based at least in part on the first sensor data, and associates the mobile computing device with the seat, among the plurality of seats, having the highest degree of correlation with the first mobile computing device.
