Android Sensors 101
FOSDEM 2014

This presentation is about a general information on sensors, how to "fuse" data from multiple sensors for more accurate information, how Android handles the available sensors, and also a practical tutorial on how to introduce new sensors to Android so they can be seamlessly accessed by applications.

As sensor chips get cheaper and mobile devices get more powerful, every smartphone and tablet includes multiple sensors to gather data from the physical environment. These include but are not limited to acceleration, magnetic filed, humidity, air pressure, and rotation.
