The y
read-only property of the LinearAccelerationSensor
interface returns a double precision integer containing the acceleration of the device along the device's y axis.
If a feature policy blocks use of a feature it is because your code is inconsistent with the policies set on your server. This is not something that would ever be shown to a user. See Feature-Policy
for implementation instructions.
Syntax
var yAcceleration = accelerometer.y
Value
A Number
.
Example
Linear acceleration is typically read in the Sensor.onreading
event callback. In the example below this occurs sixty times a second.
let laSensor = new LinearAccelerationSensor({frequency: 60}); laSensor.addEventListener('reading', e => { console.log("Linear acceleration along the X-axis " + laSensor.x); console.log("Linear acceleration along the Y-axis " + laSensor.y); console.log("Linear acceleration along the Z-axis " + laSensor.z); }); laSensor.start();
