Liftoff Detection #13

Open LinuxinaBit opened 6 months ago

I know the mouse positioning is finicky, but that’s being worked on and I think the biggest problem I currently have with it is actually that I can’t pick it up and reposition it without the cursor flying all over the place. This could be achieved through either the vertical accelerometer axis to detect vertical phone movement, the gyroscope to test if the phone is tilted suddenly, or a combination of the two. This would greatly improve this apps’s usability.

I also noticed this quite a lot during testing, as I would unconsciously reposition the phone. I also think that something like this would greatly improve the usability of the app, so thanks for the suggestion!
