  Pedometer

  The Pedometer is a non visible component that detects motion via the Accelerometer and try to determine if it has been made a step. Using a stride length that can be set up, you can also to estimate the distance traveled according to these strides.

  

• Events

  • Simple Step
  • 
  • Event that runs when it detects a step.
  • Walk Step
  • 
  • This event executes when it detects a step while walking. The difference with the 'Simple Step', is that this step is performed in the forward movement.
  • Start Moviment
  • 
  • This event is executed when it is detected that the device is moved.
  • Finish Moviment
  • 
  • This event is executed when it is detected that the device has stopped move.
  • Calibration Failed
  • 
  • This event is executed when an error is detected in the calibration.
  • Available GPS
  • 
  • This event executes when it detects a provider GPS available.
  • Lost GPS
  • 
  • This event is executed when the signal is lost the provider GPS.

• Procedures

  • Pause
  • 
  • This method, pause the counting of steps and distance.
  • Reset
  • 
  • This method resets the step counter, measure distance, and the time of execution.
  • Resume
  • 
  • This method resumes the counting.
  • Save
  • 
  • This method saves the state of the pedometer in the phone, allowing the accumulation of steps in applications that use the pedometer.
  • Start
  • 
  • This method, starts the counting of steps.
  • Stop
  • 
  • This method halts the counting of steps.

• Properties

  • Distance (number)
  • 
  • Allows to get the distance traveled in meters.
  • Elapsed time (number)
  • 
  • Determines the elapsed time in milliseconds since the start of the pedometer.
  • Simple steps (number)
  • 
  • Allows you to obtain the quantity of simple steps that were performed since he started the pedometer.
  • Stop Detection Timeout (number)
  • 
  • Allows you to determine or obtain the duration in milliseconds of inactivity (there are no steps). When this time ends, the pedometer stops.
  • Stride Lenght (number)
  • 
  • Allows you to set the average length of the stride in meters.
  • Walk Steps (number)
  • 
  • Allows you to determine the amount of steps you made since you started the pedometer.

• Example

  • Pedometer
  • 
  • Create a button that when pressed activates the pedometer, when we walk it the display shows the steps we have taken and the distance traveled.
