How to draw Polylines with Arrowheads in Google Maps Android?

Question

I am developing an app to track vehicles. I get LatLng data's from a device fitted on the vehicle. Then I plot the LatLng's on map and draw Polyline between them. That's working fine. I get the following output.

The problem is that I want to show the direction in which the vehicle traveled. I surfed through the Internet but couldn't find a solution. So please anyone guide me on how to draw arrow head in Polylines to show the direction. Thank you.

No it has a physical device fitted to the vehicle. The device will send location of the vehicle each minute when vehicle travles @MuhammadBabar — Praveen Kumar, Sep 17 '15 at 10:03
Does the device can determine and send bearing (heading) of the vehicle? — Muhammad Babar, Sep 17 '15 at 10:06
It just `LatLng` only. But I found a solution by calculating bearing between one first location and next and rotated my marker to that bearing, — Praveen Kumar, Sep 17 '15 at 10:13

Arrow Mark over Polyline in Android Google Route Map

Also, since you probably get Location from the GPS, and not LatLng you can use Location.bearingTo
