all_sensors

Package Overview

Package selection guidance compiled from public package information, community data, and project usage.

The all_sensors package is a Flutter plugin that enables access to real-time data from accelerometer, gyroscope, and proximity sensors on Android and iOS devices. It provides a simple interface to listen to sensor updates, making it ideal for applications requiring motion detection, device orientation tracking, or proximity-based interactions. The plugin abstracts platform-specific implementations, offering consistent behavior across platforms. It is lightweight and integrates seamlessly with Flutter's event-driven architecture.

Use cases

Motion-based app interactions
Device orientation tracking
Proximity-aware user interfaces
Gesture recognition in mobile apps
Fitness and activity monitoring

Key features

Real-time sensor data streaming
Cross-platform support (Android & iOS)
Simple event-based API
Support for accelerometer, gyroscope, and proximity sensors
Lightweight and easy integration

Suitable for

Developers building motion-sensitive apps
Apps requiring device orientation awareness
Interactive UIs using proximity or movement
Wearable or fitness applications
Prototyping sensor-based features

Considerations

Requires appropriate permissions on Android
Limited to specific sensor types
Background operation may be restricted on iOS
Battery usage should be monitored during continuous sensing
Not suitable for high-frequency precision measurements

All Sensors Flutter Plugin

A Flutter plugin to retreive all of sensor's data. [Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Proximity]

In proximity, screen will be off if the value is true. You must add the WAKE_LOCK permission in the AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />

Usage

To use this plugin, add all_sensors as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Example

// Import package
import 'package:all_sensors/all_sensors.dart';

// Instantiate it
List<double> _accelerometerValues;
List<double> _userAccelerometerValues;
List<double> _gyroscopeValues;
bool _proximityValues = false;

// Access sensors value
accelerometerEvents.listen((AccelerometerEvent event) {
  setState(() {
    _accelerometerValues = <double>[event.x, event.y, event.z];
  });
})

gyroscopeEvents.listen((GyroscopeEvent event) {
  setState(() {
    _gyroscopeValues = <double>[event.x, event.y, event.z];
  });
})

proximityEvents.listen((ProximityEvent event) {
  setState(() {
  	// event.getValue return true or false
    _proximityValues = event.getValue();
  });
})
