Yes, I have a compass and I'm using:
public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (event.sensor.getType() == Sensor.TYPE_ORIENTATION) {
mDraw.setOrientationString((int)event.values[0],(int)event.values[1],(int)event.values[2]);
}
}
I the View class I'm extracting the azimuth, pitch and roll...but then I
don't know how to use those numbers to check the camera direction.
Thanks for your reply.
