Qt Sensors QML Types

QML Module API

If the module is imported into a namespace, some additional methods become available.

import QtSensors 5.0 as Sensors
...
    Component.onCompleted: {
        var types = Sensors.sensorTypes();
        console.log(types.join(", "));
    }

The documentation for the module API can be found in SensorGlobal.

QML Sensor types

These types represent specific types of sensors.

Note that most properties come from the abstract Sensor element.

Accelerometer	The Accelerometer element reports on linear acceleration along the X, Y and Z axes.
AmbientLightSensor	The AmbientLightSensor element repors on ambient lighting conditions.
Compass	The Compass element reports on heading using magnetic north as a reference.
Gyroscope	The Gyroscope element reports on rotational acceleration around the X, Y and Z axes.
IRProximitySensor	The IRProximitySensor element reports on infra-red reflectance values.
LightSensor	The LightSensor element reports on light levels using LUX.
Magnetometer	The Magnetometer element reports on magnetic field strength along the Z, Y and Z axes.
OrientationSensor	The OrientationSensor element reports device orientation.
ProximitySensor	The ProximitySensor element reports on object proximity.
RotationSensor	The RotationSensor element reports on device rotation around the X, Y and Z axes.
TapSensor	The TapSensor element reports tap and double tap events along the X, Y and Z axes.
TiltSensor	The TiltSensor element reports tilt events along the X and Y axes.

QML Reading types

The data from a sensor comes through a reading class.
