How to detect M7 co-processor sensoring in an application

Question

I just wanted to make clear. I am using accelerometer in my app, So do we need to add any other framework or method to receive iPhone5s's M7 co-processor data? Is that enough of using CoreMotion framework with Method

-(void)startAccelerometerUpdatesToQueue:(NSOperationQueue *)queue withHandler:(CMAccelerometerHandler)handler;

to receive data from M7 co-processor?Or am I need to include any extra method or framework to get data in iPhone 5s?

Thanks in Advance.

As said here:

The Apple M7 and M8 co-processors collect, process, and store sensor data even if the device is asleep, and applications can retrieve data when the device is powered up again. This reduces power draw of the device and saves battery life.

So you don't need to add any other framework.

You can detect the M7 equipped device using [CMMotionActivityManager isActivityAvailable] - check the official documentation.
