Abstract

En 中文

Over the past years, transport mode recognition has become a large field of research. However, flight as a type of transportation has been mostly overlooked. A system; flight detection might be useful; context-aware applications, but more importantly, it can be used to automatically manage airplane mode on smartphones. Smartphones transmit radio frequency signals which could potentially interfere with aircraft systems, and it is there; e important that devices enable airplane mode to avoid this problem. This paper proposes flyDetect, a method; automatic flight mode detection and an embodiment in the; m of an app that demonstrates the viability of the method. Thus, the system uses the accelerometer and barometer in an Android smartphone, can detect the start and end of a flight, and notify other apps or systems on the device when this happens. Our evaluation shows that flyDetect meets the requirements set; the solution, and the results are very promising.
