The Generic Sensor API is a framework API to bring sensors to Web browsers w3.org/TR/generic-sensor/ - it tries to improve the disparate efforts and lessons learnt from them for previous sensors (geolocation, orientation and movement)
Super excited to learn more about the generic sensor API tonight from my friend @kennethrohde - come if you can, or watch for @codeandsupply to tweet a link to the stream around 7pm EST meetup.com/Pittsburgh-Code-S…

The Device and Sensors Working Group is close to bringing it to Candidate Recommendation - the API is available as an origin trial in Chrome nitter.vloup.ch/anssik/status/93… and there is a polyfill for turning the existing into the new model APIs
.@kennethrohde's amazing Generic Sensor API polyfills github.com/kenchris/sensor-p… have been further improved! Demo: intel.github.io/generic-sens… See also instructions on how to enable the native implementation in Chrome: github.com/kenchris/sensor-p…

The group is actively looking for feedback on this new approach, which is meant to help managing multiple sensors simulatenously, bring a stronger privacy and security story for them and enable high-performance use cases and sensor fusion
