문제
Does anyone know the difference between the orientation sensor and magnetic field sensor on Android?
My understanding:
- orientation => digital compass
- magnetic field => magnetometer
Since I've read that magnetometer is synonymous with digital compass I'm a little bit confused. What are they really?
해결책
The magnetic field sensor is the compass.
The orientation sensor is a combination between the magnetic field sensor, and gravity sensors. It tells you the angle of the phone relative to the ground (pitch and roll) and the direction (compass).
