Lack of moov with accelerometre

[SteveJG]

A developer recently had a similar request Erwan.

OrientationSensor Pitch movement (or how to use Accelerometer to detect movement)

I want to detect the movement of a cell phone. To do this I use OrientationSensor reading the Pitch values. If I only read the first digit of Pitch, if it changes in value the cell phone has been moved. If I read the first 2 digits of Pitch, if it changes in value, the cell phone has been moved, but the sensitivity has increased. If I read 3 digits (or more than 3) the sensor becomes too sensitive for my purpose. I ask for advice: How can I manage the pitch values to decrease the sensitivi…

There are three possibilities to achieve this:

• Accelerometer
• Orientation Sensor
• Gyroscope

All three tools are described in the post and the links within the post. Something their might be appropriate in your app.
