Using Seismic shake detection

Seismic is an Android device shake detection library by Square. To use it just start listening to the shake events emitted by it.

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    sm = (SensorManager) getSystemService(SENSOR_SERVICE);
    sd = new ShakeDetector(() -> { /* react to detected shake */ });
}

@Override
protected void onResume() {
    sd.start(sm);
}

@Override
protected void onPause() {
    sd.stop();
}

To define the a different acceleration threshold use sd.setSensitivity(sensitivity) with a sensitivity of SENSITIVITY_LIGHT, SENSITIVITY_MEDIUM, SENSITIVITY_HARD or any other reasonable integer value. The given default values range from 11 to 15.
