Device motion sampling frequency #87

Open

Description

@marcoscaceres

There was instances where the deviceorientation refresh rate was so high that it could be used a microphone. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1292751 (related paper linked to there).

The spec should suggest or say why sampling frequency should be capped at something reasonable (25-60hz).

    @marcoscaceres what's the frequency cap in WebKit?
