tobie has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/sensors: == Discrete vs continuous reporting modes == Some platforms (e.g. Android) make that distinction and expose certain sensors as continuous (e.g. reporting data at fixed time intervals) others at distinct (reporting data when a specific threshold is reached). This leaves a number of questions open: - do all platforms which make the distinction are consistent across sensors? - are some sensors exposed both ways on the same platform? - how do we express that in JS? `DiscreteSensor` and `ContinuousSensor` that both inherit from `Sensor`? - `onchange` (discrete) vs. `ondata` (continuous) events? Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/sensors/issues/75 using your GitHub account
