In Android 2.3 we got three new sensor event types: TYPE_GRAVITY TYPE_LINEAR_ACCELERATION TYPE_ROTATION_VECTOR
I assumed that this had something to do with the gyroscope (TYPE_GYROSCOPE) but looking at the code it seems that TYPE_GRAVITY and TYPE_LINEAR_ACCELERATION only uses the accelerometer, and TYPE_ROTATION_VECTOR uses only the accelerometer and the compass. http://www.google.co.in/codesearch/p?hl=en#uX1GffpyOZk/services/sensorservice Is this just the default implementation whereas for instance Google Nexus S also uses the gyroscope? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
