Galaxy WatchI am the developer of an app that uses Sensor.TYPE_LINEAR_ACCELERATION to measure the linear acceleration of the device (i.e., without gravity). It works fine on Galaxy Watch 5 and 6... but Galaxy Watch 7 gives nonsense values:
6.6893997 7.055712 7.599196
6.706159 7.065289 7.577648
6.679823 7.0461354 7.6135616
6.6989765 7.050924 7.565677
6.730101 7.0485296 7.5824366
(watch is on the table, should be values close to 0 on all three axes).
What is happening? Is Sensor.TYPE_LINEAR_ACCELERATION not supported on Galaxy Watch 7???
Edit: BTW, when I restart my app the values change completely. Watch is at rest on the same position on the table, I restarted my app and now I get:
0.50038815 8.585608 15.02601
0.48602295 8.561666 14.939818
0.48841715 8.585608 14.982914
0.49320555 8.604761 15.028404
**bleep**!? These are the raw values obtained in onSensorChanged(event: SensorEvent).
Solved! Go to Solution.
