I am assuming you are referring to the accelerometer that allows the phone to change from portrait to landscape when the phone is turned. If so, read on... remember-you wanted technical!
An accelerometer measures the non gravitational acceleration it experiences.[1] By definition, non-gravitational acceleration is that which is produced by forces other than gravity or inertial/fictitious forces. Such forces include all simple mechanical forces. These are transmitted to the accelerometer device through mechanical stress on its mounting.
The result of such forces, and the output of the accelerometer, is typically expressed in SI units meters/second2 (m/s2) or popularly in terms of g-force. It does not measure the "acceleration" due to gravity, and an accelerometer in free fall in a gravity field, even though being accelerated, will read "zero." This includes use in an earth orbiting spaceship.
When held stationary or moving at constant speed in a gravity field by a support, the output of an accelerometer has an offset due to local gravity. The force applied by the support means that, perhaps counter-intuitively, the accelerometer will indicate 1 g along the vertical axis away from the Earth. The accelerometer is simply measuring the inertial acceleration due to this external force (which thus points in a direction opposite its weight, and compensates for its weight so as it keep it motionless in the gravitational field.)

In my office lights turn on automatically when I enter the room how does it know that I am in the room?
Most likely the room has some sort of motion sensor to tell if someone is present. A heat sensor can tell if a person is in the room by the heat generated by the human body. A sound sensor can respond to noise made by a person walking, talking or otherwise. Either will work. The triggered sensor can turn on the lights or anything else electrically. The lights are usually attached to some kind of timer so that if no activity is detected in the room for a while, the lights are turned off until the next time the sensor is triggered.
What is found in a computer scanner?
They usually contain either a contact image sensor or a charge coupled device and a means to move the sensor or optics pointed at the sensor. There would also be a light source as well in the case of the CCD technology. Then there would be a circuit board to make sense of the signals and send it to the computer.
How does gravity play a role in land slides?
It pulls the soil downward.
A converter for ms works 4.5 to ms works 9.0?
If you download and then run this "Wks4Converter_en-US.msi" file it does the converting from old MS Works 4.5 to the new MS Works 9.0 version. But be aware it might loos some pictures in the original files.
What is a gravity sensor?
A gravity sensor is a device that measures the acceleration due to gravity in a particular direction. It is commonly used in smartphones and other electronic devices to orient the screen display based on the device's position.

What gravity sensor in mobile?
Mobile devices typically use an accelerometer as a gravity sensor. An accelerometer measures the device's acceleration and orientation in relation to the Earth's gravity. This sensor is used for various functions, such as screen orientation, motion detection, and gaming applications.
What is gravity sensor in tablet?
gravity sensor is the ability to play games without using your fingers and u can also move it side to side and it fit to the screen
What does the gravity sensor do on a Android tablet?
for game using
Where is the gravity rollover sensor located on a Isuzu Rodeo?
It may be located in the airbag sensor control unit.
What is the upward force that works against gravity?
Any upward force works against gravity,since they act in opposite directions.
Why doesn't the force of gravity work on planes?
It does. Gravity works on all matter
Is earths magnetic field caused by gravity?
It isnt. Two different forces; gravity and magnetism. As for how gravity works; all objects have their own "gravity", the bigger they are, the more gravitational pull they have. Why gravity works; nobody knows or we would all have flying cars.

How does door sensor works?
A door sensor works in a very straightforward manner. It has presence or motion sensors which will activate the door when they detect motion.
Dealing with the topic of gravity who was the first person to develop a theory explaining why gravity works?
galileo.
