public var gravity: Vector3;
public Vector3 gravity;
public gravity as Vector3

Description

Returns the gravity acceleration vector expressed in the device's reference frame.

	var movementScale: float;

	function Update() {
		// A "spirit level" - the dot product of the gravity and the Y axis (ie, Vector3.up)
		// is a measure of how far the device is from level on that axis (it will be zero
		// if the device is perfectly level). This value can be used to position an object
		// to act as the "bubble".
		var pos = transform.position;
		pos.y = Vector3.Dot(Input.gyro.gravity, Vector3.up) * movementScale;
		transform.position = pos;
	}
