Body
I have a game that I am working on where I am wanting to capture the movement of the device as it stays completely flat (no tilting) but is moved forward, or backward, or side to side...Ideally, this detection would be very accurate. I am just starting to dig into the code for how to implement the accelerometer or gyroscope, but before I get too far, I am wondering which of those technologies would be ideal to capture this type of motion? Is that type of motion even possible to capture? It is a unique circumstance that I am implementing it, but if I could pull it off it'd be awesome. Please let me know
