What is the use of accelerometer sensor?

An accelerometer is an electromechanical device that will measure acceleration forces. These forces may be static, like the constant force of gravity pulling at your feet, or they could be dynamic - caused by moving or vibrating the accelerometer.

The Android platform provides several sensors that let you monitor the motion of a device. ... The gravity, linear acceleration, rotation vector, significant motion, step counter, and step detector sensors are either hardware-based or software-based. The accelerometer and gyroscope sensors are always hardware-based.
