| <p> |
| This sample demonstrates the use of the two step sensors (step detector and |
| counter) and sensor batching. It shows how to register a {@link |
| android.hardware.SensorEventListener} with and without batching and shows how |
| these events are received. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Step Detector sensor fires an event when a step is detected, while the |
| step counter returns the total number of steps since a listener was first |
| registered for this sensor. Both sensors only count steps while a listener is |
| registered. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| This sample only covers the basic case, where a listener is only registered |
| while the app is running. Likewise, batched sensors can be used in the |
| background (when the CPU is suspended), which requires manually flushing the |
| sensor event queue before it overflows, which is not covered in this sample. |
