            <p>This sample demonstrates the use of the two step sensors (step detector and counter) and
            sensor batching.</p>
            <p>It shows how to register a SensorEventListener with and without
            batching and shows how these events are received.</p>
            <p>The Step Detector sensor fires an
            event when a step is detected, while the step counter returns the total number of
            steps since a listener was first registered for this sensor.
            Both sensors only count steps while a listener is registered. This sample only covers the
            basic case, where a listener is only registered while the app is running. Likewise,
            batched sensors can be used in the background (when the CPU is suspended), which
            requires manually flushing the sensor event queue before it overflows, which is not
            covered in this sample.</p>
