Description

Android 11 introduced a hinge angle sensor type to represent a sensor that measures the angle between two integral parts of a device. The current sample doesn't use that but a different approach. A nice upgrade could be to update the sample and use this new sensor type.

Research direction
Review the Android 11 hinge angle sensor documentation and update the sample code to use the new sensor type instead of the current approach. Examine the existing sensor usage in the sample and replace it with the hinge angle sensor implementation, ensuring compatibility with API level 30 and above.
