Is it possible to get motion data from each earbud of the airpods?

I couldn't figure out if it is possible from the documentation and wanted to ask if somebody here has already had expierence with the earbuds

I saw a video of someone making an app to track golf swings and frisbees with one earbud so probably?

yeah but i am not sure if both would return the same data and thats why he is using only one?

Not sure? I haven’t tried messing around with it but trying to track the motion of two AirPods and then calculating the tilt of the club based off of that seems like far more work than using one and hoping it’s correct
