Notes

The idea with an API for ambient light is to be able to detect the light level around the device – especially since there’s a vast difference between being outside in sunlight and sitting in a dim living room – and adapt the user experience based on that.

Notes

The first fruits of Mozilla’s attempt to make a Chrome OS-like Firefox operating system — Boot 2 Gecko — are now beginning to take shape in the Nightly builds of Firefox for Android. Dubbed “WebAPI,” these recent additions allow Firefox to access an Android device’s hardware through a JavaScript API. As of the latest Nightly, Firefox 11 for Android can now read the battery state, capture images from the camera, send SMSes, and trigger the vibrator motor.
