So if there is more instance of a sensor the user will have to pick the sensor he/she wants to use? And I'm not sure how using a remote sensor would make sense... In addition, I was assuming only applications were able to handle an intent. IMO, the API should whether provide a way to access the multiple sensors or just provide an unified value.
