Device Orientation and Motion https://www.w3.org/TR/2024/CR-orientation-event-20241121/ feedback due by: December 19, 2024 Published by Devices and Sensors Working Group Web Applications Working Group Abstract This specification defines events that represent the physical orientation and motion of a hosting device. These events provide web applications with access to orientation and motion data. The specification is designed to be agnostic to the underlying sources of this data, aiming to achieve interoperability across different environments. Status of the Document This section describes the status of this document at the time of its publication. A list of current W3C publications and the latest revision of this technical report can be found in the W3C technical reports index at https://www.w3.org/TR/. This document was published by the Devices and Sensors Working Group and the Web Applications Working Group as a Candidate Recommendation Snapshot using the Recommendation track. This document is intended to become a W3C Recommendation. This document will remain a Candidate Recommendation at least until 19 December 2024 in order to ensure the opportunity for wide review. If you wish to make comments regarding this document, please file an issue on the specification repository. Publication as a Candidate Recommendation does not imply endorsement by W3C and its Members. A Candidate Recommendation Snapshot has received wide review, is intended to gather implementation experience, and has commitments from Working Groups members to royalty-free licensing for implementations. The entrance criteria for this document to enter the Proposed Recommendation stage is to have a minimum of two independent and interoperable user agents that implement all the features of this specification, which will be determined by passing the user agent tests defined in the test suite developed by the Working Groups. The Working Groups will prepare an implementation report to track progress. This document was produced by groups operating under the W3C Patent Policy. W3C maintains a public list of any patent disclosures (Devices and Sensors) and a public list of any patent disclosures (Web Applications) made in connection with the deliverables of each group; these pages also include instructions for disclosing a patent. An individual who has actual knowledge of a patent which the individual believes contains Essential Claim(s) must disclose the information in accordance with section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy. For general working group announcements, administrivia, and non-technical matters email either public-device-apis@w3.org (subscribe, archives) or public-webapps@w3.org (subscribe, archives). This document is governed by the 03 November 2023 W3C Process Document. New features since publication as a Candidate Recommendation include integration of Permissions Policy and API, which now requires explicit user consent through requestPermission() for accessing device orientation data. Updates have been made to the coordinate system explanations and precision requirements to mitigate passive fingerprinting risks. The introduction of the deviceorientationabsolute event enhances applications requiring absolute orientation data (marked at risk). Interfaces are now only available in secure contexts, and security and privacy considerations have been made normative. The specification now also provides a means to automate testing of this API (marked at risk).
