Sensorlist Plugin provides list of Sensors available in an android device.
$ ionic start mySensorListApp blank$ cd mySensorListApp
$ ionic platform add android$ ionic plugin add https://github.com/theiotsuitcase/cordova-plugin-sensorlist.gitUpdate mySensorListApp/www/js/app.js to fetch the list of sensors from a controller
app.controller('AppCtrl', function($ionicPlatform, $scope) {
$ionicPlatform.ready(function() {
window.cordova.plugins.SensorList.getAvailableSensors(function(sensorsList) {
$scope.sensorsList = sensorsList;
// For some reason change detection is not working!
$scope.$apply();
}, function(ex) {
console.log('Error', ex);
});
});
})Sample output
