Is there any other sensors in android beside those?

Question

so far, i've found below sensors in android devices. I'm going to develop an app putting information about all sensors available in device. For that i need to know how many sensors an android device can have beside those are given in below?

• Gyroscope Sensor
• Light Sensor
• Orientation Sensor
• Proximity Sensor
• Temperature Sensor
• Accelerometer Sensor
• Sound
• Magnetic Field
• Pressure

Any reference link, helpful comment will be appreciated.

Answer 1

According to Google site there is total 13 sensors:

1. ACCELEROMETER : Measures the acceleration force
2. AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE : Measures the ambient room temperature
3. GRAVITY : Measures the force of gravity
4. GYROSCOPE : Measures a device's rate of rotation in rad/s around each of the three physical axes (x, y, and z).
5. LIGHT : Measures the ambient light level
6. LINEAR_ACCELERATION : Measures the acceleration force
7. MAGNETIC_FIELD : Measures the ambient geomagnetic field
8. ORIENTATION : Determining device position.
9. PRESSURE : Monitoring air pressure changes.
10. PROXIMITY : Phone position during a call.
11. RELATIVE HUMIDITY : Measures the relative ambient humidity in percent (%).
12. ROTATION_VECTOR : Motion detection and rotation detection.
13. TEMPERATURE : Monitoring temperatures.

Answer 2

Barometer sensor - basically pressure for weather forecast, Step detecting sensor and some orientation sensors with maximum 6-axis compared to the traditional 3-axis ones

Answer 3

When there is no gyroscope on the device, and only when there is no gyroscope, you may implement the rotation vector, linear acceleration and gravity sensors without using the gyroscope.
