Editors note: This and future episodes of Forging Titanium are available here.
In [Part 1 of the Twisti app series][] we created a native Android module that listened for sensor data. This sensor data was then transformed into 3 values, azimuth, pitch, and roll, which represented the physical orientation of the mobile device. In Part 2 we took that transformed data and used it to represent a mobile device as an animated 3D model with Three.js in a Titanium WebView <canvas>.
In this third and final episode in the series, we'll create a client/server relationship with Titanium Sockets. We'll create an android device that will act as a sensor proxy, serving its physical orientation to connected clients. Those clients will represent the remote sensor as a 3D model, just as in Part 2.
