I am trying to display multiple sensor readings on screen (accelerometer, magnetometer, etc.) in its own line of text. I can change the text onscreen for one type of sensor (accelerometer), but not another sensor.
I registered both sensors as Listeners, but don't know how to update each one separately inside the onSensorChanged function.
package com.example.sensorlistener_kotlin
import android.annotation.SuppressLint
import android.content.Context
import android.hardware.Sensor
import android.hardware.SensorEvent
import android.hardware.SensorEventListener
import android.hardware.SensorManager
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_main.*
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity(), SensorEventListener {
lateinit var sensorManager: SensorManager
override fun onAccuracyChanged(p0: Sensor?, p1: Int) {
}
@SuppressLint("SetTextI18n")
override fun onSensorChanged(event: SensorEvent?) {
label_accelerometerX.text = "X = ${event!!.values[0]}"
label_accelerometerY.text = "Y = ${event.values[1]}"
label_accelerometerZ.text = "Z = ${event.values[2]}"
}
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
sensorManager = getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE) as SensorManager
sensorManager.registerListener(
this,
sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER),
SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL
)
/* sensorManager.registerListener(
this,
sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_MAGNETIC_FIELD),
SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL
)*/
}
}
As the end result, I want to display X,Y,Z components of accelerometer, magnetometer, and gyroscope on screen in their own line as follows:
AccelerometerX
AccelerometerY
AccelerometerZ
MagnetometerX
MagnetometerY
MagnetometerZ
GyroX
GyroY
GyroZ
You need to check of each sensorevent on your onsensorchanged:
if (sensorEvent.sensor.type == Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER) {
label_accelerometerX.text = sensorEvent.values[0]
...
}
if (sensorEvent.sensor.type == Sensor.TYPE_MAGNETOMETER) {
...
}
if (sensorEvent.sensor.type == Sensor.TYPE_GYROSCOPE) {
...
}
