Microsoft.Maui.Devices.Sensors Namespace

Provides interfaces, classes and supporting types to work with device sensors across all supported platforms. E.g. accelerometer, compass, geolocation, etc.

Classes

Accelerometer	Accelerometer data of the acceleration of the device in three dimensional space.
AccelerometerChangedEventArgs	Event arguments containing the current reading of IAccelerometer.
Barometer	Monitor changes to the atmospheric pressure.
BarometerChangedEventArgs	Contains the current pressure information from the ReadingChanged event.
Compass	Monitor changes to the orientation of the user's device.
CompassChangedEventArgs	Event arguments when compass reading changes.
CompassExtensions	This class contains static extension methods for use with ICompass.
Geocoding	The Geocoding API provides functionality to geocode a placemark to positional coordinates and reverse-geocode coordinates to a placemark.
GeocodingExtensions	Static class with extension methods for the IGeocoding APIs.
Geolocation	Provides a way to get the current location of the device.
GeolocationExtensions	Static class with extension methods for the IGeolocation APIs.
GeolocationListeningFailedEventArgs	Event args for the geolocation listening error event.
GeolocationListeningRequest	Request options for listening to geolocations
GeolocationLocationChangedEventArgs	Event arguments containing the current reading of LocationChanged.
GeolocationRequest	Represents the criteria for a location request.
Gyroscope	The Gyroscope API lets you monitor the device's gyroscope sensor which is the rotation around the device's three primary axes.
GyroscopeChangedEventArgs	Contains the current axis reading information from the ReadingChanged event.
Location	Represents a physical location with the latitude, longitude, altitude and time information reported by the device.
LocationExtensions	This class contains static extension methods for use with Location objects.
Magnetometer	Detect device's orentation relative to Earth's magnetic field in microteslas (µ).
MagnetometerChangedEventArgs	Contains the current pressure information from the ReadingChanged event.
OrientationSensor	The OrientationSensor API lets you monitor the orientation of a device in three dimensional space.
OrientationSensorChangedEventArgs	Contains the current orientation sensor information from the ReadingChanged event.
OrientationSensorImplementation	Concrete implementation of the IOrientationSensor APIs.
Placemark	Represents a user-friendly description of a geographic coordinate. This contains information such as the name of the place, its address, and other information.
PlacemarkExtensions	This class contains static extension methods for use with Placemark objects.

Structs

AccelerometerData	Data representing the devices' three accelerometers.
BarometerData	Contains the pressure measured by the user's device barometer.
CompassData	Contains the orientation of the user's device.
