Comment on iPhone 6: Comparing InvenSense and Bosch Accelerometers

Comments

So that 1Hz is causing rotation lag.

I highly doubt that the INVN accelerometer is being used for screen rotation. It is most likely the Bosch accel.

Furthermore, otation lag is typically intentionally added by the OEM as a usability feature is order to avoid flipping the screen orientation overly rapidly. Different OEMs will have different lag and sensitivity (ie angle detection thresholds) because their respective thoughts on ideal usability can differ dramatically.

No, the lag is waiting for the rotation to stop before starting the animation.

If the screen is on then the power drain from the accelerometer running as fast as it can is tiny anyway.

1 Hz is one update per second, not one update per millisecond.
