LinearAccelerationSensor
The LinearAccelerationSensor
interface of the Sensor APIs provides on each reading the acceleration applied to the device along all three axes, but without the contribution of gravity.
To use this sensor, the user must grant permission to the 'accelerometer'
device sensor through the Permissions API. In addition, this feature may be blocked by a Permissions Policy set on your server.
Constructor
LinearAccelerationSensor()
-
Creates a new
LinearAccelerationSensor
object.
Instance properties
Inherits properties from its ancestors, Accelerometer
, Sensor
, and EventTarget
.
Instance methods
LinearAccelerationSensor
doesn't have own methods. However, it inherits methods from its parent interfaces, Sensor
and EventTarget
.
Events
LinearAccelerationSensor
doesn't have own events. However, it inherits events from its parent interface, Sensor
.
Example
Linear acceleration is typically read in the reading
event callback. In the example below this occurs sixty times a second.
js
let laSensor = new LinearAccelerationSensor({ frequency: 60 });
laSensor.addEventListener("reading", (e) => {
console.log(`Linear acceleration along the X-axis ${laSensor.x}`);
console.log(`Linear acceleration along the Y-axis ${laSensor.y}`);
console.log(`Linear acceleration along the Z-axis ${laSensor.z}`);
});
laSensor.start();
