Class SensorManager

  • Direct Known Subclasses:
    SystemSensorManager

    public abstract class SensorManager
extends Object

    SensorManager lets you access the device's sensors. Get an instance of this class by calling Context.getSystemService() with the argument Context.SENSOR_SERVICE.

    Always make sure to disable sensors you don't need, especially when your activity is paused. Failing to do so can drain the battery in just a few hours. Note that the system will not disable sensors automatically when the screen turns off. 

     public class SensorActivity extends Activity, implements SensorEventListener {
     private final SensorManager mSensorManager;
     private final Sensor mAccelerometer;

     public SensorActivity() {
         mSensorManager = (SensorManager)getSystemService(SENSOR_SERVICE);
         mAccelerometer = mSensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER);
     }

     protected void onResume() {
         super.onResume();
         mSensorManager.registerListener(this, mAccelerometer, SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL);
     }

     protected void onPause() {
         super.onPause();
         mSensorManager.unregisterListener(this);
     }

     public void onAccuracyChanged(Sensor sensor, int accuracy) {
     }

     public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
     }
 }

      • getRotationMatrix

        public static boolean getRotationMatrix(float[] R,
                        float[] I,
                        float[] gravity,
                        float[] geomagnetic)

        Computes the inclination matrix I as well as the rotation matrix R transforming a vector from the device coordinate system to the world's coordinate system which is defined as a direct orthonormal basis, where:

        • X is defined as the vector product Y.Z (It is tangential to the ground at the device's current location and roughly points East).
        • Y is tangential to the ground at the device's current location and points towards the magnetic North Pole.
        • Z points towards the sky and is perpendicular to the ground.

        world coordinate-system diagram.

        By definition:

        [0 0 g] = R * gravity (g = magnitude of gravity)

        [0 m 0] = I * R * geomagnetic (m = magnitude of geomagnetic field)

        R is the identity matrix when the device is aligned with the world's coordinate system, that is, when the device's X axis points toward East, the Y axis points to the North Pole and the device is facing the sky.

        I is a rotation matrix transforming the geomagnetic vector into the same coordinate space as gravity (the world's coordinate space). I is a simple rotation around the X axis. The inclination angle in radians can be computed with getInclination(float[]).

        Each matrix is returned either as a 3x3 or 4x4 row-major matrix depending on the length of the passed array:

        If the array length is 16: 

           /  M[ 0]   M[ 1]   M[ 2]   M[ 3]  \
   |  M[ 4]   M[ 5]   M[ 6]   M[ 7]  |
   |  M[ 8]   M[ 9]   M[10]   M[11]  |
   \  M[12]   M[13]   M[14]   M[15]  /
        This matrix is ready to be used by OpenGL ES's glLoadMatrixf(float[], int).

        Note that because OpenGL matrices are column-major matrices you must transpose the matrix before using it. However, since the matrix is a rotation matrix, its transpose is also its inverse, conveniently, it is often the inverse of the rotation that is needed for rendering; it can therefore be used with OpenGL ES directly.

        Also note that the returned matrices always have this form: 

           /  M[ 0]   M[ 1]   M[ 2]   0  \
   |  M[ 4]   M[ 5]   M[ 6]   0  |
   |  M[ 8]   M[ 9]   M[10]   0  |
   \      0       0       0   1  /

        If the array length is 9: 

           /  M[ 0]   M[ 1]   M[ 2]  \
   |  M[ 3]   M[ 4]   M[ 5]  |
   \  M[ 6]   M[ 7]   M[ 8]  /

        The inverse of each matrix can be computed easily by taking its transpose.

        The matrices returned by this function are meaningful only when the device is not free-falling and it is not close to the magnetic north. If the device is accelerating, or placed into a strong magnetic field, the returned matrices may be inaccurate.

        Parameters:
        R - is an array of 9 floats holding the rotation matrix R when this function returns. R can be null.

        I - is an array of 9 floats holding the rotation matrix I when this function returns. I can be null.

        gravity - is an array of 3 floats containing the gravity vector expressed in the device's coordinate. You can simply use the values returned by a SensorEvent of a Sensor of type TYPE_ACCELEROMETER.

        geomagnetic - is an array of 3 floats containing the geomagnetic vector expressed in the device's coordinate. You can simply use the values returned by a SensorEvent of a Sensor of type TYPE_MAGNETIC_FIELD.
        Returns:
        true on success, false on failure (for instance, if the device is in free fall). On failure the output matrices are not modified.

      • remapCoordinateSystem

        public static boolean remapCoordinateSystem(float[] inR,
                            int X,
                            int Y,
                            float[] outR)

        Rotates the supplied rotation matrix so it is expressed in a different coordinate system. This is typically used when an application needs to compute the three orientation angles of the device (see getOrientation(float[], float[])) in a different coordinate system.

        When the rotation matrix is used for drawing (for instance with OpenGL ES), it usually doesn't need to be transformed by this function, unless the screen is physically rotated, in which case you can use Display.getRotation() to retrieve the current rotation of the screen. Note that because the user is generally free to rotate their screen, you often should consider the rotation in deciding the parameters to use here.

        Examples:

        • Using the camera (Y axis along the camera's axis) for an augmented reality application where the rotation angles are needed:

            • remapCoordinateSystem(inR, AXIS_X, AXIS_Z, outR);

        • Using the device as a mechanical compass when rotation is Surface.ROTATION_90:

            • remapCoordinateSystem(inR, AXIS_Y, AXIS_MINUS_X, outR);

          Beware of the above example. This call is needed only to account for a rotation from its natural orientation when calculating the rotation angles (see getOrientation(float[], float[])). If the rotation matrix is also used for rendering, it may not need to be transformed, for instance if your Activity is running in landscape mode.

        Since the resulting coordinate system is orthonormal, only two axes need to be specified.

        Parameters:
        inR - the rotation matrix to be transformed. Usually it is the matrix returned by getRotationMatrix(float[], float[], float[], float[]).
        X - defines on which world axis and direction the X axis of the device is mapped.
        Y - defines on which world axis and direction the Y axis of the device is mapped.
        outR - the transformed rotation matrix. inR and outR can be the same array, but it is not recommended for performance reason.
        Returns:
        true on success. false if the input parameters are incorrect, for instance if X and Y define the same axis. Or if inR and outR don't have the same length.

      • getOrientation

        public static float[] getOrientation(float[] R,
                     float[] values)
        Computes the device's orientation based on the rotation matrix.

        When it returns, the array values is filled with the result:

        • values[0]: azimuth, rotation around the Z axis.
        • values[1]: pitch, rotation around the X axis.
        • values[2]: roll, rotation around the Y axis.

        The reference coordinate-system used is different from the world coordinate-system defined for the rotation matrix:

        • X is defined as the vector product Y.Z (It is tangential to the ground at the device's current location and roughly points West).
        • Y is tangential to the ground at the device's current location and points towards the magnetic North Pole.
        • Z points towards the center of the Earth and is perpendicular to the ground.

        All three angles above are in radians and positive in the counter-clockwise direction.

        Parameters:
        R - rotation matrix see getRotationMatrix(float[], float[], float[], float[]).
        values - an array of 3 floats to hold the result.
        Returns:
        The array values passed as argument.

      • getAltitude

        public static float getAltitude(float p0,
                float p)
        Computes the Altitude in meters from the atmospheric pressure and the pressure at sea level.

        Typically the atmospheric pressure is read from a Sensor.TYPE_PRESSURE sensor. The pressure at sea level must be known, usually it can be retrieved from airport databases in the vicinity. If unknown, you can use PRESSURE_STANDARD_ATMOSPHERE as an approximation, but absolute altitudes won't be accurate.

        To calculate altitude differences, you must calculate the difference between the altitudes at both points. If you don't know the altitude as sea level, you can use PRESSURE_STANDARD_ATMOSPHERE instead, which will give good results considering the range of pressure typically involved.

          float altitude_difference = getAltitude(SensorManager.PRESSURE_STANDARD_ATMOSPHERE, pressure_at_point2) - getAltitude(SensorManager.PRESSURE_STANDARD_ATMOSPHERE, pressure_at_point1);

        Parameters:
        p0 - pressure at sea level
        p - atmospheric pressure
        Returns:
        Altitude in meters

        Each input matrix is either as a 3x3 or 4x4 row-major matrix depending on the length of the passed array:

        If the array length is 9, then the array elements represent this matrix 

           /  R[ 0]   R[ 1]   R[ 2]   \
   |  R[ 3]   R[ 4]   R[ 5]   |

        If the array length is 16, then the array elements represent this matrix 

           /  R[ 0]   R[ 1]   R[ 2]   R[ 3]  \
   |  R[ 4]   R[ 5]   R[ 6]   R[ 7]  |
   |  R[ 8]   R[ 9]   R[10]   R[11]  |

   |  R[ 3]   R[ 4]   R[ 5]   |
   \  R[ 6]   R[ 7]   R[ 8]   /
        If R.length == 16, the following matrix is returned:
