Sensors

The temperature sensor measures the ambient air temperature, in Celsius (˚C). Not many devices have this sensor available.

The telephony sensor provides information on the mobile phone capabilities of the device, connected cell towers and neighboring towers. Settings Aware_Preferences.STATUS_TELEPHONY: true or false to activate or deactivate sensor. Telephony.ACTION_AWARE_TELEPHONY: broadcasted when the telephony  profile is updated. Telephony.ACTION_AWARE_CDMA_TOWER: broadcasted when

 Android The screen sensor monitors the screen statuses, such as turning on and off, locked and unlocked. Settings Aware_Preferences.STATUS_SCREEN: true or false to activate or deactivate sensor. Screen.ACTION_AWARE_SCREEN_ON: broadcasted when the screen is on. Screen.ACTION_AWARE_SCREEN_OFF: broadcasted when the screen is

 Android The rotation sensor measures the orientation of the device as a combination of an angle and an axis, in which the device has rotated through an angle θ around an axis (x, y, or z). The rotational vector sensor is particularly

The proximity sensor measures the distance to an object in front of the mobile device. Depending on the hardware, it can be in centimeters or binary. Public functions Proximity.getFrequency( Context context ): returns the sampling rate in Hz. Settings Aware_Preferences.STATUS_PROXIMITY:

 Android The processor sensor measures the mobile phone’s processor load. It provides the average processors load (for multi-core devices) dedicated to the user processes, system processes and idle (i.e., no load). It also broadcasts when the processor is under stress

 Android The barometer sensor measures the ambient air pressure. Barometer can be leveraged to detect and predict short team changes in weather, for example drops in pressure indicate rain, while raises indicate good weather ahead. Public functions Barometer.getFrequency( Context context

 Android The network sensor provides information on the network sensors availability of the device. These include use of airplane mode, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, mobile and WIMAX status and internet availability. This sensor can be leveraged to detect the availability of

MQTT stands for MQ Telemetry Transport. It is a publish/subscribe, extremely simple and lightweight messaging protocol, designed for constrained devices and low-bandwidth, high-latency or unreliable networks. The design principles are to minimise network bandwidth and device resource requirements whilst also

The magnetometer measures the geomagnetic field strength around the device. It lets you monitor changes in the Earth’s magnetic field. This sensor provides raw field strength data (in μT) for each of the axis. The coordinate-system is defined relative to the
