Here are some examples of cell Phones with Barometers
.1. Get a PackageManager Instance named myPackageManager.
2. Create a Boolean Variable named bolBarometerSupported.
3. Set the Minimum and Target SDK version to 9 or greater.
4. In the onCreate method, add the below code. This will return the barometer sensor ability to a boolean named bolBarometerSupported. It will then display a toast displaying the barometer sensor ability of the device to the user.
bolBarometerSupported = myPackageManager.hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_SENSOR_BAROMETER);
if (bolBarometerSupported) {
Toast.makeText(this, "Device has Barometer Sensor capability", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(this, "No barometer Sensor capability!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
5. Compile and run!
