I’ve just watched this video showing off an app:

At 3:34. How in the WORLD does it detect metal? I wasn’t able to find anything on the web about it. Can anyone explain it to me please? Maybe offer some code or something …
Thanks.
EDIT
How in the world is this not a real question? It’s a programming related question asking how do you use an Android device to detect metal. I just don’t understand some of you guys 🙂
well, you could use a magnetic field sensor, which is what I think they use in that video.
