the magnetic North Pole. You can also use the orientation sensor (or similar sensor-based
orientation methods) to determine a device's position in your application's frame of reference.
Position sensors are not typically used to monitor device movement or motion, such as shake, tilt,
or thrust (for more information, see <a
