Significant Motion detection?

[Wes Santee]

I'm trying to convert some of my Tasker profiles to Automate to try it out.  Also, I'm attempting to keep things as efficient as possible.

In Tasker, I can set the Use Motion Detection option in the monitoring preferences, which I think uses the Android Significant Motion sensor for ultra-low battery power motion detection.  Thankfully my device has this sensor, and it's great for stopping unnecessary battery drain on things like Wi-Fi scans when the device is stationary.

Does Automate access this sensor somewhere?  If not, it seems like this would be a great candidate to expose as a block in the Sensor section.  Failing that, what is the next best thing?  Using the Personal Activity block gated behind some kind of timer?

Thanks!

I'll add a sensor block for i. Yes, until then the Personal activity block is an alternative, since the Google Play Services is likely using the significant motion sensor.
