 * - `values[0]`: Acceleration on the x axis
 * - `values[1]`: Acceleration on the y axis
 * - `values[2]`: Acceleration on the z axis
 *
 * For phones and tablets held in natural orientation and game controllers
 * held in front of you, the axes are defined as follows:
 *
 * - -X ... +X : left ... right
 * - -Y ... +Y : bottom ... top
 * - -Z ... +Z : farther ... closer
 *
 * The accelerometer axis data is not changed when the device is rotated.
 *
 * Gyroscope sensor notes:
 *
 * The gyroscope returns the current rate of rotation in radians per second.
 * The rotation is positive in the counter-clockwise direction. That is,
 * an observer looking from a positive location on one of the axes would
 * see positive rotation on that axis when it appeared to be rotating
 * counter-clockwise.
 *
 * - `values[0]`: Angular speed around the x axis (pitch)
 * - `values[1]`: Angular speed around the y axis (yaw)
 * - `values[2]`: Angular speed around the z axis (roll)
 *
 * For phones and tablets held in natural orientation and game controllers held in front of you, the axes are defined as follows:
 *
 * - -X ... +X : left ... right
