Use the Sensors tool in DevTools to emulate sensor input of a device, such as override geolocation, simulate device orientation, force touch events when clicking, and emulate device idle state.
The Windows operating system provides native support for sensor devices. This support includes location sensors such as GPS devices. As part of this support, the platform provides a standard way for device manufacturers to expose sensor devices to software developers and consumers. At the same time, the platform gives developers a standardized API and device driver interface (DDI) to work with ...

This article provides recommendations for the design and development of sensor devices. Windows provides native support for sensor devices. This support includes location sensors such as GPS devices. As part of this support, the platform provides a standard way for device manufacturers to expose sensor devices to software developers and consumers.
Note Compass and Inclinometer sensors are not directly exposed through the Windows universal sensors DDI. Instead, these two sensors are automatically constructed by the sensor stack on top of the GUID_SensorType_Orientation sensor. Compass and Inclinometer will be visible to WinRT applications whenever a GUID_SensorType_Orientation sensor is present on the system. Similarly, the altimeter ...
Sensor categories Sensor categories represent broad classes of sensor devices. Categories provide a way to group sensors that are likely to provide similar types of information, or are otherwise related in some way. Each category is represented by a GUID constant. Two sensors of different types can belong to the same category or two different categories. For example, an accelerometer and a ...
