Hi,

now that device orientation, geolocation, camera etc. have been spec'ed:
Is there any intent to provide an API for pressure sensors?

This might well be the next hip feature in smartphones ...

Oh, and while we are at it: Humidity probably belongs to the same group.


Could this be modeled as an extension [1] to the System Info API [2]?

This spec is still at the working draft phase. Perhaps renaming it to 'Generic Sensors API' and removing a whole bunch of the sensors included in there at the moment would be appropriate.

Getting and monitoring pressure and humidity within that framework would work.
