Sudden Motion Sensor #2

Open sainslie opened 6 years ago

I feel it might be useful to add support to utilise the in-built Sudden Motion Sensor on modern MacBooks to detect motion of the computer on multiple axis. It appears that support existed to parse accelerometer data but it might in fact be depreciated. I feel it might be another useful feature to detect potential tampering or interaction attempts but I also understand it might not be practical.

As far as I know, the Sudden Motion Sensor is no longer included in modern Macbooks. The SMS is a feature to protect hard drives, and modern Macbooks use solid state drives.
