'i3D' Demo App Shows Off Head-Tracking 3D on iOS Devices

[Percybut]

The idea is originally from 2007!!

The idea is originally from a Carnegie Mellon University student.
see video posted in 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jd3-eiid-Uw

They even used the same demo! And they didn't acknowledge the student who came up with the idea.

I'm pretty sure this is a recycled topic. I have already read about this.

I know because this is the only site where I get my mac news.

There has been an app form OSX 10.5 for a while with the same demos which never got updated to work with Leopard/Snow Leopard

I bet they could get 3D movies to play using this tech.

There are other potentials that developers will find uses for. Don't underestimate the developers.

And to all the complainers that this isn't 'perfection', development isn't pretty, it takes a while to make it better and work the bugs out.

Are you referring to this?... p://www.chrisharrison.net/projects/headtracking/index.html

iTracker's pretty cool too (http://www.eyetwig.com/?doc=150009) - control your mouse with head tracking.

Just downloaded. Really awesome but laggy on iPod touch, as expected.
