When you rotate your VAIO computer in Tablet Mode, the built-in accelerometer automatically detects the movement and rotates the computer screen to portrait or landscape orientation depending on the computer orientation.

Navigation assistance using the built-in digital compass

When your VAIO computer is in Tablet Mode, the built-in digital compass provides navigation assistance on compatible apps by detecting the direction the computer is facing.

App operation using the built-in gyro sensor

The built-in gyro sensor detects angular movement of your VAIO computer, which allows you to perform actions with apps, such as a game app.

Hint

• You need to calibrate the built-in digital compass when the app does not show the direction correctly. See Notes on Built-In Sensors for more information.
