Description Bastien Nocera 2015-05-21 08:55:26 PDT

https://github.com/hadess/iio-sensor-proxy is going to be the preferred way to access sensors on non-Android Linux systems, covering Accelerometers, Light Sensors and Compass support.

Compass when implemented in iio-sensor-proxy will probably be proxied through Geoclue2, so this shouldn't be a blocker.

The 2 other types should be implementable already.

Bastien, what do you expect WebKit to do with iio-sensor-proxy?

Use it to implement W3C sensor APIs, report issues to iio-sensor-proxy any problems or limitations encountered while implementing said APIs.
