var absolute:Bool

This attribute's value is true if the orientation is provided as a difference between the device coordinate frame and the Earth coordinate frame; if the device can't detect the Earth coordinate frame, this value is false. Read only.

var alpha:Float

The current orientation of the device around the Z axis; that is, how far the device is rotated around a line perpendicular to the device. Read only.

var beta:Float

The current orientation of the device around the X axis; that is, how far the device is tipped forward or backward. Read only.

var gamma:Float

The current orientation of the device around the Y axis; that is, how far the device is turned left or right. Read only.
