LinearAccelerationSensor: LinearAccelerationSensor() constructor

Limited availability

Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.

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.

Syntax

new LinearAccelerationSensor()
new LinearAccelerationSensor(options)

Parameters

options Optional

Options are as follows:

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