Sensors in detected list

[noitarud]

Are the sensors in my device not functional because of lacking support or they are not actually what they are detected to be? The 33171016 / BU52053NVX hall effect sensor is disused.

b. Do all the sensors have an experiment associated with them? Someone is sure to find an application if they were accessible. Step, guestures, pedometer, motion accel, tilt, RMD, AMD(relative/absolute motion detector)… the custom experiment option does not even list these (maybe the generic/preexisting techniques to activate+read will be sufficient? Even for the hall?).

c. there are 44 temperature sensors inside the device ("Temp. Monitor" app), not that practical (thermal cycles could reduce device lifespan), but, if usb devices add then we could have temp too. We just need to be alerted if any get attached (my usb sticks dont add).

You could find a list of the directly supported sensors at https://phyphox.org/wiki/index.php/Phyph...le:_sensor and the next phyphox version 1.2.0 on Android (the current test version) will include a “custom” variant that should let you access all sensors that are listed in the Device Info.

Our selection is rather historical with a few criteria like scientific applicability, properly defined units, or general availability. Anyone is free to add own custom experiments and we ourselves list a few at https://phyphox.org/wiki/index.php/Categ...xperiments (the TVOC experiment is an example of the new custom sensor). That's what https://phyphox.org/editor is for – and https://phyphox.org/wiki/index.php/Phyphox_file_format for those quicker with a text editor…

dear Jess,
I'd like to create an experiment using a custom sensor ("type 15" on my google Pixel 7a, which is a "game rotation vector" --> attitude quaternion as computed without magnetometer). Based on the TVOC experiment you suggested to refer, I should write such a line in the xml file:

  <input>
    <sensor type="custom" filterType="type 15">

or even

  <input>
    <sensor type="custom" nameFilter="Game Rotation Vector Sensor">

should be fine (according to your wiki).

Either way, it happens that as soon as I upload the config file onto the web editor (old or new, it does not make any difference) to generate the QR code, the editor automatically changes it in:

  <input>
    <sensor type="accelerometer">

Is there anything that I miss? Should I bypass the web editor to generate a Qr code?
Thanks,
Pietro

The editor does not yet support file format version 1.19 that is part of the upcoming 1.2 phyphox release. I know that development has started to include all the new features, however, it likely won't be published before the app.

For now, you need to code the line “by hand”. The QR code is just a web link, so you could put the file on any online service and create your own…

ok thanks Jess, got it.
Well, nothing particularly wrong with your attitute sensor experriment...it's just that it very probabily takes quaternion data from the "rotation vector" virtual sensor and, hence, it uses acc+gyro+mag. I'd like a smartphone orientation computed solely from acc+gyro that is the output of the "game rotation vector" (see image attached).
Cheers,
Pietro
