7 Comments
An accelerometer and gyro can greatly enhance the laptop’s ability to locate itself in 3D space and enhance location awareness. This can help with its mesh location network for AirTags, or along with the camera and AI it can allow the laptop to leverage RoomPlan. The gyro/accel combo can also help with Spatial Audio and calibrate itself with AirPods. Wonder what future airpod features are coming down the pipe.
Can you show the backside of this board?
Hey Caesar!
The backside of the board is shown in the last photo of the first step.
