This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.
The DeviceMotionEvent
provides web developers with information about the speed of changes for the device's position and orientation.
Warning: Currently, Firefox and Chrome does not handle the coordinates the same way. Take care about this while using them.
