Accelerometer doesn't have own events. However, it inherits events from its parent interface, Sensor.
Example
Acceleration is typically read in the reading event callback. In the example below this occurs sixty times a second.
js
const acl =newAccelerometer({frequency:60});
acl.addEventListener("reading",()=>{
console.log(`Acceleration along the X-axis ${acl.x}`);
console.log(`Acceleration along the Y-axis ${acl.y}`);
console.log(`Acceleration along the Z-axis ${acl.z}`);});
acl.start();
