Pedometer

Last Updated On 2021-07-16

A Component that acts like a Pedometer. It senses motion via the Accerleromter and attempts to determine if a step has been taken. Using a configurable stride length, it can estimate the distance traveled as well.

Properties

You can set the below properties in the UI part of the builder.

StopDetectionTimeout - it's a non negative integer value which is set to 2000 by default.
StrideLength - it's a non negative float value which is set to 0.73 by default.

Block Properties

You can set the below blocks properties in the blocks section of the builder.

CalibrateStrideLength

This property has been deprecated.

Distance

The approximate distance traveled in meters.

ElapsedTime

Time elapsed in milliseconds since the pedometer was started.

Moving

This property has been deprecated.

SimpleSteps

The number of simple steps taken since the pedometer has started.

StopDetectionTimeout

The duration in milliseconds of idleness (no steps detected) after which to go into a "stopped" state

StrideLength

Set the average stride length in meters.

UseGPS

This property has been deprecated.

WalkSteps

the number of walk steps taken since the pedometer has started.

Methods

You can set the below method blocks in the blocks section of the builder.

Pause

Pause counting of steps and distance.

Reset

Resets the step counter, distance measure and time running.

Resume

Resumes counting, synonym of Start.

Save

Saves the pedometer state to the phone. Permits permits accumulation of steps and distance between invocations of an App that uses the pedometer. Different Apps will have their own saved state.

Start

Start counting steps

Stop

Stop counting steps
