Android: How to save sensor data onSensorChanged to a database?

view story
linux-howto

http://stackoverflow.com – I'm writting an android app in which I'm acquiring the accelerometer data from the sensor of the phone until the user quits. Afterwards I modify the data and try to save it to an existent database. Everything works fine, but when I'm calling my saveToDatabase() method in the onSensorChanged method, then the app starts to work extremely slow and becomes unresponsive and crashes shortly after. So, the problem is that i'm calling saveToDatabase() too often... Is there a way to avoid that? May be with an ArrayList/LinkedList/ArrayDeque where the sensor data have to be collected and after 5mins (HowTos)

I am creating an android application in that speech impaired user to call out left, right , forward, backward by waving the device in respective directions using android phone.I am using accelerometer reading for finding the phone motion.But the code is not working as expected.Here is my code.

@Override public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) { Sensor sensor = event.sensor;

I have been working on logging data from accelerometer. Nonetheless, I find it difficult to control the on/off of the accelerometer sensor. I have tried to have two buttons, one called Start and the other Stop. I initialized my senor object in the onCreate() callback of the Activity Class.

Please help me i am stuck in between my dream project. Here I am sensing the data in onSensorChanged method & trying to send the data to PC over bluetooth.

I am trying to write a step counter for android. It currently includes four buttons in one activity: a button to start recording accelerometer data which is stored in an arraylist. The arraylist takes a type Trace, which is a class I created to hold the data of one sensor change.

[Q] Accelerometer output rate 33 weeks 5 days ago

Does anyone know at what rate the accelerometer makes sensor data available for use?

For instance, is it real-time? Can I capture data from the sensor every .0001secs? Or is there a set rate?

Any information about this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

[Q] HOX G sensor problem 30 weeks 4 days ago

Hello there,

i am now currently using InsertCoin One X 9.7.0 and the stock kernel. My Hboot version is 1.12. But my g-sensor doesn't work properly. Sometimes the g-sensor works after I flashed another kernel or simply rebooting the device. I have searched on the internet about this problem but there are no solutions for that.

I have attached the log for the sensor.

You would think that there would be a straight forward solution.

I'm working on a game that uses accelerometer data to change a character's X position. So far, I have the right idea (I think), but I am bogged down with an error that I don't know how to work with.

I have the following class to read data from accelerometer:

public class Accelerometer implements SensorEventListener {

private SensorManager mSensorManager; private Sensor mAccelerometer;

float deltaX; float deltaY; float deltaZ;

Activity activity;

public Accelerometer(Activity act) { this.activity = act; mSensorManager = (SensorManager) t
