An accelerometer is an inertial sensor which measures the linear velocity, tilt motion and thereby the orientation of a mobile phone. It also detects the shock/vibration/shake on the device. Basically helps in tracking head movements in VR.
-
The gyroscope adds an additional dimension to the orientation determined by the accelerometer by tracking rotation or twist. While accelerometer measures linear acceleration of movement, a gyroscope in the mean time measures the angular rotational velocity. Presence of a gyro is absolutely necessary for a seamless VR experience.
-
Proximity sensor in a smartphone is a hardware based sensor used to determine the nearness of an object. Common uses include detecting the face and locking the screen during phone calls.
-
The gravity sensor measures the acceleration effect of earth's gravity on the device enclosing the sensor. It is typically derived from the accelerometer.
-
The linear acceleration measures the acceleration effect of the device movement, excluding the effect of Earth's gravity on the device. It is typically derived from the accelerometer.
-
The digital compass that's usually based on a sensor called magnetometer provides mobile phones with a simple orientation in relation to the Earth's magnetic field. As a result, your phone always knows which way is North so it can auto rotate your digital maps depending on your physical orientation.
-
The rotation vector is a virtual sensor in Android that depends on the accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer (digital compass). Using all three it helps determining the orientation while the VR content is being rendered.
-
A game rotation vector sensor is similar to a rotation vector sensor but not using the geomagnetic field.
-
A geomagnetic rotation vector is similar to a rotation vector sensor but using a magnetometer and no gyroscope.
-
A light sensor is used to automatically adjust display brightness according to the light in your surrounding.
-
A pressure sensor is used to measure the air pressure.
-
Pedometer is a step counting sensor used in fitness apps primarily. The same can be achieved using an accelerometer but this provides more reliable data.
-
An ambient temperature sensor is used to measure the air temperature.
