/*!
    \class QRotationReading
    \ingroup sensors_reading

    \preliminary
    \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. The three angles are applied to the device in the
    following order.

    \list
    \o Right-handed rotation z (-180, 180]. Starting from the x axis and incrementing towards the
       y axis.
    \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

    \image Rotation_angles.png Visual representation of the rotation angles.

    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.

    The only difference is that the filter() method features a pointer to QRotationReading
    instead of QSensorReading.

    \class QRotationSensor

    \preliminary
    \brief The QRotationSensor class is a convenience wrapper around QSensor.

    The only behavioural difference is that this class sets the type properly.

    This class also features a reading() function that returns a QRotationReading instead of a QSensorReading.

    For details about how the sensor works, see \l QRotationReading.

    Returns true if z is available.
