How to change camera position/walk in aframe vr with accelerometer?

(I know it will be unstable but I still want to try it)

I want to move around in aframe scene using accelerometer

  AFRAME.registerComponent('acccam',{
  window.addEventListener('devicemotion', function(){
            var acc = event.acceleration;
            this.el.object3D.position.x += acc.x*9.8;
            this.el.object3D.position.y += acc.y*9.8;
            this.el.object3D.position.z += acc.z*9.8;

        }, true);
  })

I expect the camera to move or at least shake/something but nothing is happening could getelement by id, get attribute and set attribute be used to update the position by taking temporary values and then cloning them if yes then how?

Make sure the event is firing, and make sure you don't have like look-controls also enabled on the same entity or it will be overridden.

You can need to make sure this is the correct pointer. When you wrap in function (), this becomes window. You can use (evt) => { instead of function (evt) {
