You can create both simple and complex apps using sensors. The following table describes each category, the characteristics of that category, example applications, and which sensors you should use.
| App category | Simple | Complex |
|---|---|---|
| App characteristics | App applies changes in velocity to a moving object | App applies data from multiple sensors to adjust the users perspective |
| Examples | Labyrinth game | XNA auto-racing game, augmented reality game, and/or first-person shooter game |
| Requirements | Requires accelerometer input | Requires all three motion sensors and all degrees of freedom |
| Recommended sensors | Accelerometer | When available, OrientationSensor is recommended; however, when not available, you can combine the accelerometer, gyrometer, and compass to obtain similar results |
