Since the launch of the iPhone 4 we are talking about the Retina Display, the Antenna issue and the camera, but one thing we are not talking about that often is the Gyroscope. The Gyroscope is a new iPhone feature that is more accurate than the accelerometer in the previous iPhone. Why do we need it? Well take a look at the video above, it shows a augmented reality app “Accrossair” on the iPhone 3GS and the iPhone 4 and the difference is pretty amazing.
We know the iPad is a multifunctional futuristic device, right? But did you know it can be used to control a Blimp? Yes that’s right, the guys from breakfastny created a massive iPad controlled blimp with a build in camera. They used: BlimpDuino, Titanium and openFrameworks to control the Blimp using a iPad which received the live video-feed from the cockpit. To show their creation to the thousand guests, they flew the camera-enabled blimp over their heads at this year’s Design Week after-party. » Blimp Controlled By An iPad
Since the iPhone playing games has been more popular than ever. But this movie above is really mind blowing. It shows a 360 degree game play using a small projector mounted on the iPhone. When you point the iPhone with projector to the ground you will also see the ground in the game. It’s a bit hard to explain till you have seen the movie, so check the movie and you will understand that the future iPhones still got a lot for us in store. At this point you still need a jailbroken iPhone to use the projector, but who knows what Apple has in store for us in the future. » 360 Degree iPhone Game Play Using A Pico Projector
