LinearAccelerationSensor.constructor

The LinearAccelerationSensor constructor creates a new LinearAccelerationSensor object which provides on each reading the acceleration applied to the device along all three axes, but without the contribution of gravity.

If a feature policy blocks use of a feature it is because your code is inconsistent with the policies set on your server. This is not something that would ever be shown to a user. See Feature-Policy for implementation instructions.

Syntax

var linearAccelerationSensor = new LinearAccelerationSensor([options])

Parameters

options Optional
Options are as follows:
  • frequency: The desired number of times per second a sample should be taken, meaning the number of times per second that sensor.onreading will be called. A whole number or decimal may be used, the latter for frequencies less than a second. The actual reading frequency depends device hardware and consequently may be less than requested.
  • referenceFrame: Either 'device' or 'screen'. The default is 'device'.
