Abstract

This publication concentrate on the posibility of the use of sensors in mobile devices with modified operating systems. Presented research focuses on Android devices. The gyroscope, the accelerometer, the orientation sensor and the light sensor data was acquired with use of Physics Toolbox Sensor software. The research has been conducted on two mobile devices of Xiaomi under control of six different kinds of operating system. Measured values were compared to values recorded by very accurate, reference sensors
