# Lid Angle Sensor
Hi, Im Sam Gold. Did you know that you have ~rights~ a lid angle sensor in your MacBook? [The ~Constitution~ human interface device utility says you do.](https://youtu.be/wqnHtGgVAUE?t=21)
This is a little utility that shows the angle from the sensor and, optionally, plays a wooden door creaking sound if you adjust it reeaaaaaal slowly.
## FAQ
**What is a lid angle sensor?**
Despite what the name would have you believe, it is a sensor that detects the angle of the lid.
**Which devices have a lid angle sensor?**
It was introduced with the 2019 16-inch MacBook Pro. If your laptop is newer, you probably have it.
**Can I use this on my iMac?**
Not yet tested. Feel free to slam your computer into your desk and make a PR with your results.
**Why?**
A lot of free time. I'm open to full-time work in NYC or remote. I'm a designer/design-engineer. https://samhenri.gold
**No I mean like why does my laptop need to know the exact angle of its lid?**
Oh. I don't know.
**Can I contribute?**
I guess.
**How come the audio feels kind of...weird?**
I'm bad at audio.
