Calabrate Accelerometer

Question

Hi

Im using this code to rotate and object in my scene.

 function Update () {
 iphoney=Input.acceleration.z;
 transform.Rotate(Vector3.forward*iphoney*10.0); 
 
 if (transform.eulerAngles.z <= 10){
 transform.eulerAngles.z = 10;
 }
 if (transform.eulerAngles.z >= 75){
 transform.eulerAngles.z = 75;
 
 }

}

I need to calibrate the accelerometer to make game play more comfortable. At the moment I have to have the phone flat which is uncomfortable. I would prefer the phone to sit at about 45 degrees. The project will be landscape orientation.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Make a calibration button. Save the Input.acceleration and subtract or add the result from the iphoney variable when you initialize it.

Something like this:

//when calibrating globals.calibrationLevel=Input.acceleration.z;

//when initializing iphoney=Input.acceleration.z-globals.calibrationLevel;

I'm not remembering if you add or subtract the two numbers. I'm unable to test at the moment.
