Accelerometer: y property
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The y
read-only property of the Accelerometer
interface returns a number specifying the acceleration of the device along its y-axis.
Value
A Number
.
Examples
Acceleration is typically read in the reading
event callback. In the example below this occurs sixty times a second.
js
const accelerometer = new Accelerometer({ frequency: 60 });
accelerometer.addEventListener("reading", (e) => {
console.log(`Acceleration along the X-axis ${accelerometer.x}`);
console.log(`Acceleration along the Y-axis ${accelerometer.y}`);
console.log(`Acceleration along the Z-axis ${accelerometer.z}`);
});
accelerometer.start();
