Syntax
public class Accelerometer : Sensor
Remarks

An accelerometer let's you measure the acceleration of a device, and can be useful to control content by moving a device around. Note that the accelerometer will report the acceleration measured on a device both due to moving the device around, and due gravity pulling the device down. You can use GravitySensor and LinearAccelerationSensor to get decoupled values for these.

class MyBehavior : MonoBehaviour
{
    protected void OnEnable()
    {
        // All sensors start out disabled so they have to manually be enabled first.
        InputSystem.EnableDevice(Accelerometer.current);
    }

    protected void OnDisable()
    {
        InputSystem.DisableDevice(Accelerometer.current);
    }

    protected void Update()
    {
        var acceleration = Accelerometer.current.acceleration.ReadValue();
        //...
    }
}
