      2 Android BatchStepSensor Sample
      3 ===================================
      4 
      5 Sample demonstrating how to set up SensorEventListeners for step
      6 detectors and step counters.
      7 
      8 Introduction
      9 ------------
     10 
     11 This sample demonstrates the use of the two step [sensors][1] (step detector and counter) and
     12 sensor batching.
     13 
     14 It shows how to register a [SensorEventListener][2] with and without
     15 batching and shows how these events are received.
     16 
     17 The Step Detector sensor fires an
     18 event when a step is detected, while the step counter returns the total number of
     19 steps since a listener was first registered for this sensor.
     20 
     21 Both sensors only count steps while a listener is registered. This sample only covers the
     22 basic case, where a listener is only registered while the app is running. Likewise,
     23 batched sensors can be used in the background (when the CPU is suspended), which
     24 requires manually flushing the [sensor event][3] queue before it overflows, which is not
     25 covered in this sample.
