Precisions

The technical operations carried out on the front end can implement physical sensors of the user device. The solicitation of these sensors, the control processes of these sensors can lead to premature wear and in the event of failure, push to renew the device. Certain software techniques can reduce the use of physical sensors, or ensure that they are used with the minimum of constraints.

Use Case

Source code checks report sensor usage
