\class QRotationReading
\ingroup sensors_reading
\brief The QRotationReading class represents one reading from the
rotation sensor.
\section2 QRotationReading Units
The rotation reading contains 3 angles, measured in degrees that define
the orientation of the device in three-dimensional space. These angles
are similar to yaw, pitch and roll but are defined using only right hand
rotation with axes as defined by the right hand cartesian coordinate system.
\image sensors-rotation.jpg
The three angles are applied to the device in the following order.
\list
\o Right-handed rotation z (-180, 180]. Starting from the y-axis and
incrementing in the counter-clockwise direction.
\o Right-handed rotation x [-90, 90]. Starting from the new
(once-rotated) y-axis and incrementing towards the z-axis.
\o Right-handed rotation y (-180, 180]. Starting from the new
(twice-rotated) z-axis and incrementing towards the x-axis.
\endlist
Here is a visualisation showing the order in which angles are applied.
\image sensors-rotation-anim.gif
The 0 point for the z angle is defined as a fixed, external entity and
is device-specific. While magnetic North is typically used as this
reference point it may not be. Do not attempt to compare values
for the z angle between devices or even on the same device if it has
moved a significant distance.
If the device cannot detect a fixed, external entity the z angle will
always be 0 and the QRotationSensor::hasZ property will be set to false.
The 0 point for the x and y angles are defined as when the x and y axes
of the device are oriented towards the horizon. Here is an example of
how the x value will change with device movement.

Here is an example of how the y value will change with device movement.
\image sensors-rotation3.jpg
Note that when x is 90 or -90, values for z and y achieve rotation around
the same axis (due to the order of operations). In this case the y
rotation will be 0.
