I have got a Dell edge gateway 5000 with Linux Snappy 15.04 as OS.

I have installed the gateway access point and I can connect the gateway from my smartphone. Now, I need to read the smartphone sensors like accelerometer, touch screen co-ordinates, light, and so on.

The smartphone is an HTC M9 with Android 7.0.

    What smartphone do you have? You have to add this information in the question (Android, iOS, Windows phone, ...) – CGG Feb 06 '17 at 07:52

    If you are not going to code it yourself, I believe that your best approach is to ask at http://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/, not here, since you are asking us to provide a software application – Mawg says reinstate Monica Feb 06 '17 at 18:25

From sensors you can register a listener to sensor events [1] and on every value you send it to a ByteArrayWriter/Listener pair over socket connection [2].

Socket needs only WLAN from the gateway, the rest of it is java code [3].

Complete solution needs some coding effort with the building blocks I gave.
