how to use the gyro to move a object along x axis

Hello i am wanting to use my phone or other devise to tilt left and right and move a object.
any help is appreciated

 

same here, this is a MUST have feature for any mobile engine, but i cant find any decent documentation on how this works!

the best i could find was "Gyro Droid" http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/10...h-and-every-sensor-on-Android-devices-RELASED but you shouldn't have to spend $45 just to get gyro access!

 

Ok, after doing more research, i found that is it actually better to use the accelerometer, since more devices have it although gyro's are more precise.

so here is what i did and it works fine

Code (csharp):

1. gameObject.transform.position.x += Input.acceleration.x;

I dont know if this is the best way to do it but it got the job done. Hope this helps!

 

This is what I use in javascript, Hope it helps

Code (csharp):

1. var speed = 35.0;
2.  
3.  
4. function Update ()
5.  {
6.     this.transform.position.x += -Input.acceleration.x * speed * Time.deltaTime;
7.  }

if you want to change wich way you tilt to go left or right replace

Code (csharp):

1. var speed = 35.0;
2.  
3.  

with

Code (csharp):

1. var speed = -35.0;
2.  
3.  

 

Thanks for this! i knew i was missing something!
