how about macbook accelerometers? about parallax

[wagerfield]

Hi @danielgetsthis this is a tricky issue I'm afraid. Originally the library was indiscriminate to the device it was working on and tried to use the gyroscope before falling back to the cursor position.

On MacBook Pros, the built in gyroscope actually works and you are able to lift up the laptop, move it around and get the feedback from the device. However, not a lot of people know that their MBP has a gyroscope and were complaining that it was not working with their mouse.

I attempted to integrate both events, but the input values fight with one another and the experience on MBP is very jittery. Subsequently I decided to add a desktop boolean which is factored into the fallback logic meaning that regardless of whether or not your desktop device has a gyroscope, it always falls back to using the cursor position.

If you would like a version of the library that does not implement this logic, simply fork the project and remove the desktop boolean check here

awesome. Thank you
