Two sensors have been deprecated and replaced by newer better sensors.
Android temperature sensor example.
Unfortunately you cannot test the accelerometer on the android emulator.
Let s see the two sensor examples.
Android simple sensor app example.
A sensor example that prints x y and z axis values.
Android sensors supports several sensors via the sensormanager for example the accelerometer.
Android provided a framework called sensor framework to access all the sensors available on device and to get all the raw sensor data.
For example many sensors were introduced in android 1 5 api level 3 but some were not implemented and were not available for use until android 2 3 api level 9.
Likewise several sensors were introduced in android 2 3 api level 9 and android 4 0 api level 14.
You can access a sensormanager via getsystemservice sensor service.
For example by using a sensor framework we can perform the following things it lists all the available sensors on the device.
Here we are going to see that.
For example the temperature in c or the pressure in hpa.
Click for changing background color of activity sensor example.
The sensor framework provided a wide variety of sensor related tasks.
There is only one textview in.
Table 1 provides a summary of the environment sensors that are supported on the android platform.
Android devices have a lot of interesting sensors letting you to make fun applications.
