Title: Getting Accelerometer Values

Hi Guys, I've just created an Action that allow us to retrieve axis value from an accelerometer of a devices, any feedback are really appreciated.

Hi,

 nice. The big problem with raw acceleration is device orientation. So a great addition would be to map acceleration based on device orientation for consistency, otherwise it's quite difficult to work with acceleration as is.

Silly me, I didn't notice that there where an action for this exact function, and do exactly the same...so please ignore this

jeanfabre: does the one Playmaker provide takes device orientation into account?

Hi,

 Nop. It's really tricky, I tried, but never got around finding the right maths to provide a proper usefull set of values.

bye,
