well this is Sean house with the verge
and we're taking a look at the three
scales 12 axis in extrinsic sensing
platform this tiny little module right
here that you can see if I can focus on
it properly there we go this module has
a 3d accelerometer gyroscope magn ometer
and inclinations of sensing it is
working here with the microsoft windows
8 sensor fusion platform and you can see
right here on screen that these sensors
combine to give you not only this
compass reading but a 3d view of exactly
which way you're facing which way you're
tilted and if you pull it up and down
kind of other forces acting on this
piece of hardware and put this in a
Windows 8 tablet and be able to tell
where it is and what it's doing at any
given time
in a nice simplified format that
developers can build for thank you for
