Modern UIs feel alive because they move with you. Subtle shifts, depth, and motion cues turn flat screens into tactile experiences, but achieving that effect is usually locked behind platform-specific APIs and hand-tuned native code.

In this session, we’ll build a motion-driven parallax library using .NET MAUI’s Sensors API. Instead of toy examples, we’ll use real accelerometer and gyroscope data to create smooth, responsive depth effects that react to how the device is actually held and moved.

Starting from raw sensor data, we’ll explore how to transform noisy, high-frequency signals into stable, expressive UI motion. You’ll see how to expose this as a reusable abstraction that works consistently across Android, iOS, and how to integrate it cleanly into real MAUI layouts.

The session is demo-heavy and code-focused, showing how to turn sensor readings into polished parallax effects that feel intentional rather than gimmicky.
