Window.ondeviceorientation

An event handler for the deviceorientation event, which contains information about a relative device orientation change.

Detecting device orientation

Increasingly, web-enabled devices are capable of determining their orientation; that is, they can report data indicating changes to their orientation with relation to the pull of gravity. In particular, hand-held devices such as mobile phones can use this information to automatically rotate the display to remain upright, presenting a wide-screen view of the web content when the device is rotated so that its width is greater than its height.

DeviceAcceleration

A DeviceAcceleration object provides information about the amount of acceleration the device is experiencing along all three axes.

DeviceMotionEvent.acceleration

The acceleration property returns the amount of acceleration recorded by the device, in meters per second squared (m/s2).

DeviceMotionEvent.accelerationIncludingGravity

The accelerationIncludingGravity property returns the amount of acceleration recorded by the device, in meters per second squared (m/s2). Unlike DeviceMotionEvent.acceleration which compensates for the influence of gravity, its value is the sum of the acceleration of the device as induced by the user and the acceleration caused by gravity.

DeviceMotionEvent.interval

Returns the interval, in milliseconds, at which data is obtained from the underlaying hardware. You can use this to determine the granularity of motion events.

DeviceOrientationEvent.absolute

Indicates whether or not the device is providing orientation data absolutely (that is, in reference to the Earth's coordinate frame) or using some arbitrary frame determined by the device. See Orientation and motion data explained for details.

DeviceOrientationEvent.beta

Returns the rotation of the device around the X axis; that is, the number of degrees, ranged between -180 and 180,  by which the device is tipped forward or backward. See Orientation and motion data explained for details.

DeviceMotionEvent.rotationRate

Returns the rate at which the device is rotating around each of its axes in degrees per second.

DeviceOrientationEvent.gamma

Returns the rotation of the device around the Y axis; that is, the number of degrees, ranged between -90 and 90, by which the device is turned left or right. See Orientation and motion data explained for details.
