Description
As I can see, VBA-M can emulate the gyroscope sensor using the left analog stick.
Would be possible to connect it to the real hardware gyroscope sensor on mobile devices?
I'm testing it on iOS and it doesn't seems to work. Maybe on the android side this function is already supported!
Thanks.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the C++ mobile-platform and input-handling entry points, then trace how the left analog stick currently feeds gyroscope emulation. Done means the real gyroscope is connected on the relevant mobile platforms, with existing behavior preserved where hardware is unavailable.
