super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
getSensorList();
}
@SuppressLint("NewApi")
private void getSensorList()
//
SensorManager sensorManager = (SensorManager) getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);
//
List sensors = sensorManager.getSensorList(Sensor.TYPE_ALL);
//
StringBuilder strLog = new StringBuilder();
int iIndex = 1;
for (Sensor item : sensors)
strLog.append(iIndex ".");
strLog.append("Sensor Type - " item.getType() "\r\n");

}
System.out.println(strLog.toString());
}
@Override
