Android :: Accelerometer Gravity Components

Jun 7, 2010

I know this question is definitely solved somewhere many times already, please enlighten me if you know of their existence,

Quick rundown:
I want to compute from a 3 axis accelerometer the gravity component on each of these 3 axes.
I have used 2 axes free body diagrams to work out the accelerometer's gravity component in the world X-Z, Y-Z and X-Y axes. But the solution seems slightly off, it's acceptable for extreme cases when only 1 accelerometer axis is exposed to gravity, but for a pitch and roll of both 45 degrees, the combined total magnitude is greater than gravity (obtained by Xa^2+Ya^2+Za^2=g^2; Xa, Ya and Za are accelerometer readings in its X, Y and Z axis).

More detail:
The device is a Nexus One, and have a magnetic field sensor for azimuth, pitch and roll in addition to the 3-axis accelerometer.In the world's axis (with Z in the same direction as gravity, and either X or Y points to the north pole, don't think this matters much?), I assumed my device has a pitch (P) on the Y-Z axis, and a roll (R) on the X-Z axis. With that I used simple trig to get:
Sin(R)=Ax/Gxz
Cos(R)=Az/Gxz
Tan(R)=Ax/Az
There is another set for pitch, P.Now I defined gravity to have 3 components in the world's axis, a Gxz that is measurable only in the X-Z axis, a Gyz for Y-Z, and a Gxy for X-Y axis.Gxz^2+Gyz^2+Gxy^2=2*G^2 the 2G is because gravity is effectively included twice in this definition. Oh and the X-Y axis produce something more exotic I'll explain if required later.From these equations I obtained a formula for Az, and removed the tan operations because I don't know how to handle tan90 calculations (it's infinity?).So my question is, anyone know whether I did this right/wrong or able to point me to the right direction?

Android :: Sounds + Accelerometer - Weird Accelerometer Values - BUG?

Jun 9, 2009

I am developing a game. In which the user controls movement using the accelerometer. Sounds effects can also be enabled. However when laying the phone flat down and playing the game without the accelerometer gives nice 0,0,0 values. However when play WITH SOUNDS on, i get a buch of weird values: while the phone is NOT moving.

This is really a big bug that makes life hard for Game Developers. I tried to take an avarge of the last 5 values from the sensor.. but this is not enough.. The harder the sounds plays: the higher the weird sensor values. When using the headphones: almost no weird values. Seems that sounds interferes with the accelerometer sensor.

Android :: Gravity And Layout_gravity

Aug 14, 2010

I know we can set the following value to the anroid:gravity and android:layout_gravity :

center
center_vertical
center_horizontal , etc.

But i am confused regarding these both. what is the difference between the usage of android:gravity and android:layout_gravity?

Android :: Gravity Vs Layout_gravity?

May 14, 2009

What is the difference between those attributes? According to the documentation of R.attr, there isn't any difference (doc text is exactly the same, see http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr.html), but apparently, that's simply not true. For example, the gravity attribute can be used on EditText to set the text alignment (e.g. left, center, right).

I often found that neither of them work to align a view at all. For example, I need to float two text views in a relative layout, one going to the left below a title bar, the other going to the right below the title bar. So what I did was this:

CODE:...............

That doesn't work, however. The left text is indeed aligned to the left inside its parent (the relative layout), but the right text is not aligned to the right; instead, it's placed directly to the right of the left text.

Android :: Set Gravity For A TextView Programmatically

Sep 23, 2010

I can use android:gravity="bottom|center_horizontal" in xml on a textview to get my desired results but I need to do this programmatically.

My textview is inside a tablerow if that matters in a relativelayout.

I have tried:

CODE:........

But if I understand that correctly, that would apply it to the tablerow? not the textview?

Android :: How To Set Layout Gravity Of RelativeLayout Programmatically?

Nov 9, 2010

I have ScrollView with RelativeLayout as a child of ScrollView. I am trying through JAVA code to set Layout_Gravity to CENTER so my RelativeLayout is centered (horizontally and vertically) in the middle of ScrollView (that covers whole screen).This works fine in XML and produces desired result, but when I try to do this programmatically, it seems there is no way to set Layout_Gravity of RelativeLayout. I tried using LayoutParams, but couldn't find anything there that would help me to center RelativeLayout in the middle. So, am I missing something or this simply can't be done?

Android :: Set Attributes - Margin - Gravity To View Programmatically?

Apr 27, 2010

I need to create a GUI (layout+views) in my .java activity class (I know it's far more flexible and easier to use .xml layout file, but I don't want to use it for now).

I can't find any setGravity() (but a "Gravity" object I can't figure how to use) or any set setMargin() method for the "View" object. What is the easiest way to do it?

Android :: TextView Gravity - Implementation Of ViewGroup With Some TextViews In It?

Nov 10, 2010

Has anyone tried to write his own implementation of ViewGroup with some TextViews in it? I have a problem, that TextViews in such an implementation don't respect gravity attribute (TextView.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);) and text is positioned in the top left corner.

If enyone is interested, I just overwrote method onMeasure() (for all my TextViews) and changed call from super.onMeasure() to setMeasuredDimension(int, int) and gravity started to work normally.

Basically, in my custom layout I use the following class to display text:

Android :: Using Customized UI Components In XML

Oct 9, 2009

When I use customized components in XML, could I use a short name of component instead of a fully qualified class name? I wonder if some configuration file exists to do that work.

For example, my customized components is ex.object.RoundRect,

I should use it in xml file like this: <ex.object.RoundRect android:id="@+id/mainRoundRect01" ... />

But

I want to use it like this: <RoundRect android:id="@+id/mainRoundRect01" ... />

Is it possible? Is there a configuration file that can map the fully qualified class name to a short name?

Android :: Sharable Custom UI Components

Aug 11, 2010

I want to develop and distribute some custom UI components for android apps. This custom component can do some network communicatioon too with my server. So by this I want to hide the communication protocol from my component users, and will show the content as provided by my control eg sponsor ads. This concept is same as Apple's iAD. Issue: 1. I want to hide my custom component code from its users so that they just need to include it in their antivity rest its upto me. 2. I have not implemented but sure that a UI component can do network communication.

Android :: OpenGL ES Missing Some Components?

Oct 1, 2009

I'm trying to run the "HelloTriangle" example, from The OpenGL ES 2.0 Programming Guide, in the Android emulator.I import egl.EGLConfig and opengles.GL10 from javax.microedition.khronos, but the ESContext type and definitions such as GL_COMPILE_STATUS and GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER can't be resolved.I reworked the triangle example somewhat for Android in that I'm using GLSurfaceView. I undertand that it is supposed to be used instead of OpenGLContext in the newer versions of the SDK.Am I using a "non-Android" approach to OpenGL ES? If so, what's the right one?

Android :: Add Views Dynamically Or On Top Of Other Components

Nov 19, 2010

I use a LinearLayout and first I have a MapView and below the map I have a TableLayout with informations fields.

Now I would like to add additional information fields (e.g. a new TableLayout) when the user select a specific menu item on the Options Menu. I would like to have these fields either between the MapView and the TableLayout, or on top of the bottom area of the MapView.

How can I add this TableLayout with additional information fields dynamically after the user has selected a menu item? How can I show it below the MapView or on top of the bottom area of the MapView?

Android :: Control Hierarchy In Custom Components

Oct 7, 2010

I'm reading the android docs on custom component development and i'm a little confused. If you're creating an activity, you can add add a hierarchy of views via setContent. however, if you're creating a custom component, you have to handle everything in the draw() overload.if i want to build a custom component that relies on a view hierarchy, is the model simply to create a hierarchy internally and then in draw call myViewHierarchy.Draw() or something?
