RelativeOrientationSensor

Relative Orientation Sensor sample

This sample demonstrates use of the Windows.Devices.Sensors.Orientation API for the Relative Orientation sensor.

This sample allows the user to view the rotation matrix and quaternion values that reflect the current device orientation. You can choose one of two scenarios:

• Relative orientation data events
• Polling relative orientation readings

Relative Orientation Data Events

When you choose the Enable button for the Data Events option, the app will begin streaming relative orientation readings in real time.

Polling Relative Orientation Readings

When you choose the Enable button for the Polling option, the app will retrieve the current sensor readings.
