Orientation

Measures the orientation and acceleration of the device.

Properties

Name	Data Type	Range
Orientation	Quaternion	x, y, z, w (-1 to 1)
Acceleration	Vector3	x, y, x (-30 to 30)

What does the data mean?

The orientation comes in as Quaternion data which Unity uses under the hood for Game Object rotation. Acceleration is on three axes. The z axis is through the back to the front (side with ports) of the device, the x is through the left and right side of the device, and the y is through the bottom and top of the device.

Check Mirror on the object the Orientation script is attached to and the object will mirror the Device's orientation.

Code

Unity

using Magic;

public class Demo : MonoBehaviour
{
    // create a reference to the algorithm
    public Magic.Algorithms.Orientation orientation;
    
    void Start()
    {
    }
    
    void Update()
    {
        // access the property of the algorithm
        Quaternion spatialData  = orientation.orientation;
        Vector3 movement = orientation.acceleration;
    }
}
