Motorcycle app - angle reading in corners

[SteveJG]

This will be difficult Seweryn. It is not simple. You need to use the OrientationSensor (for pitch and / or roll) or the x, y axes of the Accelerometer . If your Android has a gyroscope, that might work better The advice here discusses all three tools

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…

The developer asking for advice had a different purpose than what you require but the discussion (and the links ... be sure to read them all) might help you to experiment. The advice and techniques might be appropriate to what your bluetooth outputs.

Let us know what you discover.

To plot the actual angles, you might modify Juan Antonio’s rotating circle using a Canvas . The example provides a circle you can rotate with a finger he envisioned as a volume control. The results are degrees of rotation. It might work fine to control your bike attitude perhaps and can be converted to a display. Does it work in your intended application?
