Supported sensors Currently, phyphox supports the following inputs and outputs:

Inputs

Accelerometer

Magnetometer

Gyroscope

Light sensor

Pressure

Proximity sensor

Microphone

GPS/Location

Bluetooth for custom devices (for example an Arduino)*

Outputs

Speaker

Bluetooth for custom devices (for example an Arduino)* Of course, not every phone has the same set of sensors and new sensors may be added to phyphox in the future (for example the camera and GPS). If you have any suggestions or needs, please let us know.

• Bluetooth support is still work in progress. At the moment it is only available for Android, but we intend to add it to iOS as well. However, a generic support for all devices and communication protocols is rather complicated, so if you want to use Bluetooth, please let us know and we will be happy to get it to work.

The coordinate system

coordinate_systemIn phyphox, the z axis is perpendicular to the screen, pointing out of it. The x axis points to the right when holding the device in its default position. For phones this means, that it points to the right while looking at the screen in portrait (vertical) orientation. The y axis points upwards along the long side of the phone. However, on some larger tablets, the default orientation can be landscape (horizontal), in which case x points along the long side of the device.

=========================

Which one of these might detect some paranormal activity.. lol

there's a gyroscope in a phone?

Yes, modern smartphones have a gyroscope, which is a tiny sensor that measures the device's rotation and orientation in three-dimensional space. This sensor, often a MEMS (micro-electromechanical system) gyroscope, works with an accelerometer to provide a complete picture of the phone's movement, enabling features like automatic screen rotation, gaming control, image stabilization, and augmented reality.

magnetic sensor... so you could use it like a "metal detector"?

compass, eh.. how does that one work. Maybe sometimes things might make it go "flaky".
