- Specification URL: https://w3c.github.io/ambient-light/
- Name: Accelerometer
- Specification URL: https://w3c.github.io/accelerometer/
- Name: Gyroscope
- Specification URL: https://w3c.github.io/gyroscope/
- Name: Magnetometer
- Specification URL: https://w3c.github.io/magnetometer/
- Name: Orientation Sensor
- Specification URL: https://w3c.github.io/orientation-sensor/

Further resources:

- Use cases: https://w3c.github.io/sensors/usecases
- Explainer: https://w3c.github.io/motion-sensors/
- Demos: https://intel.github.io/generic-sensor-demos/

Further details (optional):

- Relevant time constraints or deadlines: we plan to advance to CR around 1Q'18 assuming positive feedback from the origin trial and you! Feedback from TAG by the end of 2017 would be nice.
- [x] I have read and filled out the [Self-Review Questionnare on Security and Privacy](https://www.w3.org/TR/security-privacy-questionnaire/). The [assessment is here](https://github.com/w3c/sensors/blob/master/security-questionnaire.md).
- [x] I have reviewed the TAG's [API Design Principles](https://w3ctag.github.io/design-principles/)

You should also know that...

- We have prepared a [Changelog](https://github.com/w3c/sensors/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) documenting the differences from the [W3C Working Draft 24 March 2016](https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/WD-generic-sensor-20160324/) TAG reviewed earlier to make this revisit a pleasant experience for you.
- We have addressed all your feedback provided during the earlier review in https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/110 and https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/115
- Generic Sensor-based sensors in scope for this TAG review are available as an [origin trial](https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/09/sensors-for-the-web) starting in Chrome 63.

We'd prefer the TAG provide feedback as (please select one):

- [ ] open issues in our Github repo for each point of feedback
- [ ] open a single issue in our Github repo for the entire review
- [x] leave review feedback as a comment in this issue and @-notify [github usernames]
