Lumia SensorCore SDK
is a collection of APIs utilising data from different sensors (for
example, accelerometer) and also location information. This information
can be used to track user’s physical activities and motion. The sensors
are able to run constantly in the background, collecting and preserving
data for up to past ten days. Even though they are constantly active,
the sensors run in a low power mode, consuming only a negligible amount
of battery. Since the sensors may provide access to user’s private data,
data privacy is a critical part of the design. User has always the
option of disabling SensorCore SDK sensors and clearing any collected
data.
The Lumia SensorCore SDK will be available initially for
Lumia 1520, Lumia Icon, Lumia 930, Lumia 630 and 635, running on Windows
Phone 8.1 with Cyan firmware.
