Mobile Device Accelerometer JS Model

written by Wolfgang Christian

The Mobile Device Accelerometer JavaScript model reads the direction and magnitude of the proper acceleration g. An arrow shows the projection of g onto the screen and output fields show the numerical g components. Users can tilt and shake their device and record the changing acceleration.

Users should lock the screen orientation to maintain a fixed view.
