Mobile sensor APIs allow us to get the data from the embedded sensors.

That 3D accelerometer inside N95 , N93i or N82 is from STMicroelectronics (type LIS302DL). The European chipmaker STMicroelectronics (STM)has also supplied the motion-control chip for the Nintendo Wii console’s controller. This chip is built around a technology known as Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS). Essentially chips with tiny moving parts like gears.

Several developers have announced applications that make use of 5500 , N95,N93i or N82′s sensors using either the Sensor API (previouly used with only 5500) or the middleware released by the Nokia Research Center (NRC). Here are the ones known at this time.  Head on over for the list and download links. http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/S60_Sensor_API
