This will ensure your sensor is as responsive as possible. In this program, you are controlling the position of the alien with the sensor, so you must map the accelerometer range to the window range. You can do this with the following formula:<!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><strong>Y = (X &#8211; A) \/ (B &#8211; A) * (D &#8211; C) + C<\/strong><!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013>where:<\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<ul><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<li>A and B are the range of the Accelerometer when tilting (-1 to 1)<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<li>C and D are the range of values you want to map to (0 to WIDTH)<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<li>X is the current value that falls between A and B<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<li>Y is the value you are looking for that falls between C and D<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/ul>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee>This formula has been implemented in the <strong>mapAcceleration<\/strong> function in the code.<\/pee>[\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.1&#8243; box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_blur_tablet=&#8221;40px&#8221; box_shadow_spread_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; vertical_offset_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243; horizontal_offset_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243; module_id=&#8221;practice&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243;][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Practice&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.6&#8243; box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_blur_tablet=&#8221;40px&#8221; box_shadow_spread_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; vertical_offset_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243; horizontal_offset_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2>Practice<\/h2>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<ol><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<li>Try commenting out the section of your code that sets the data interval.
