1. A computer device for determining a range of yaw angle estimates, the device comprising:
- one or more processors; and
one or more memories coupled to the one or more processors;
wherein the one or more memories include non-transitory computer executable instructions stored therein that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to;
determine a potential range of yaw angles from a plurality of primary telematics data, wherein the primary telematics data comprises a plurality of telematics data originated from a client computing device, the effects of gravity having been removed from the plurality of telematics data in a first primary movement window;
generate one or more yaw angle estimates;
plot the one or more yaw angle estimates from the first primary movement window;
apply an arc length of a static region on a unit circle to the one or more yaw angle estimates from the first primary movement window; and
determine a driving pattern based on at least one of the yaw angle estimates.

Abstract
A method for determining a yaw angle estimate or vehicle heading direction is presented. A potential range of yaw angles is generated based on a plurality of primary telematics data. One or more yaw angle estimates are generated from the potential range of yaw angles. A driving pattern is determined based on at least one of the yaw angle estimates. The primary telematics data is a plurality of telematics data originated from a client computing device. The effects of gravity have been removed from the plurality of telematics data in a first primary movement window.
