Define the sensor coordinate system unambiguously
All illustrations in the documentation show devices with phone
form factors, i.e. portrait orientation. Some tablets have a native
landscape orientation. It is not clear from the documentation
if the sensor coordinate system should be relative to the portrait
orientation or the native orientation.
This change defines the native orientation as the canonical orientation.

If values are to be displayed on the screen the values may need to be transformed so that they match the user interface orientation. A sensor may define its data as being oriented to the UI. This will be noted in the documentation for the sensor. |
