This is a Call for Consensus (CfC)  to publish FPWD of  three concrete sensor drafts based on the Generic Sensor API [1] and also to approve the short name for each:

(1) Accelerometer Sensor, https://w3c.github.io/accelerometer/

shortname: accelerometer

(2) Gyroscope Sensor, https://w3c.github.io/gyroscope/

shortname: gyroscope

(3) Magnetometer Sensor, https://w3c.github.io/magnetometer/

shortname : magnetometer

Please note that a FPWD is just that, a first public draft, so it need not be perfect and subsequent change is possible. Some minor editorial adjustments may be made during publication.

Please respond to this CfC (even a +1 is useful) or with any concerns by 7 Sept (1 week). Silence will be considered agreement.

+1. We're implementing these three in Chromium/Blink:

https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/m/#!topic/blink-dev/_IReUkNKF6o

As usual, we'll provide the implementation feedback to the group.

This is a follow up to the agreement on the 25 August teleconference, http://www.w3.org/2016/08/25-dap-minutes.html#item05

Thanks,
