<script src="js/gyro.js"></script>

At the bottom of your document after the including of gyro.js add the following.

	gyro.startTracking(function(o) {
		// o.x, o.y, o.z for accelerometer
		// o.alpha, o.beta, o.gamma for gyro
	});
</script>

• gyro.frequency = 500 - How often to poll for changes.
• gyro.getOrientation() - Get the current accelerometer and gyro information.
• gyro.startTracking(function(o){...}) - Return the gyro data at the specified frequency defined in gyro.frequency
• gyro.stopTracking() - Clear the interval set in gyro.startTracking.
• gyro.hasFeature('devicemotion') - Check if the web browser supports either MozOrientation, devicemotion or deviceorientation
• gyro.getFeatures() - Gets all accelerometer and gyro features supported.
