Abstract

Some electronic devices may not include hardware such as a gyroscope that is capable of providing precise orientation information. In some implementations, accelerometer data may be used to determine a content display adjustment (e.g., an adjustment to a first person perspective view in a game scene) by sampling accelerometer data over multiple time periods. For example, accelerometer data may be used to determine short term and longer term accelerometer sample values. The content display adjustment may be determined based at least in part on the accelerometer sample values and information associated with the content display adjustment may be communicated to a display.
