- MaxIsBored, on 08/22/2008, -19/+239who cares? I don't read reddit, so it's news to me.
- inactive, on 08/22/2008, -2/+144At least it doesn't cost $999.
- incubusbeatsall, on 08/22/2008, -2/+117THAT'S 100 BOOBS
- madeingermany, on 08/22/2008, -3/+98It will soon be available for $999.99
- SurrealDream, on 08/22/2008, -3/+96I'm confused, how did the phone know the angle of rotation relative to the camera? I understand that he can spin the image by swiping the screen, so he could have set the original orientation to be facing the camera, however on a flat table the accelerometer wouldn't be able to distinguish the rotating motion that accurately, would it?
Don't get me wrong, not knocking the app. It looks awesome, I just wanna know how that's done! - lordtyros, on 08/22/2008, -12/+103MrBabyMan: Read digg upcoming, submit to digg.

- MaxIsBored, on 08/22/2008, -2/+56I would have 50 iphones.
- Vesci, on 08/22/2008, -0/+41If you had 50 iphones you could link them together and output a full hologram naked chick.

Useless? Think of the porn applications. - convergent, on 08/22/2008, -2/+41last time i checked this website wasn't reddit.
- DeusGear, on 08/22/2008, -3/+40Where can I get this?
- Beelzebub, on 08/22/2008, -0/+32Yay for math!
Math is delicious! - GreenAlien, on 08/23/2008, -4/+34This was submitted to Digg 11 days ago. Would be nice if that had made it to the front page unstead of waiting all this time for MrBabySpam to come along.

The people who follow the "celebrity" submitters are no better than the religious. Sheep mentality. - dotuplink, on 08/22/2008, -2/+30not on the app store :(
- mchrest, on 08/22/2008, -4/+32The software uses the ipod’s built-in gyroscope to calculate rotation on the y-axis, so we can look around the environment around by turning the device, there are also controls for manual rotation with a slider on the left hand side of the screen.
-from his website. - smellytim, on 08/22/2008, -2/+27someone get this man a nobel prize
- bpoteat, on 08/22/2008, -1/+26I've seen uselesser.
- aaronadms, on 08/22/2008, -2/+26If they give you some cool "hologram" options then this thing will be awesome!
- MaxIsBored, on 08/22/2008, -4/+27Blocked. 2 seconds ago.
- d0zy, on 08/22/2008, -12/+35"making the object appear to jump off the screen."
I don't see it...
Is this like the HDTV commercials showing off on standard TVs? - tnoy, on 08/22/2008, -1/+20I agree. I have not been to reddit, nor do I have any plans to. Its probably on a few dozen other forums, too.
- Dylson, on 08/22/2008, -4/+22Ramen
- chaserdog53, on 08/22/2008, -1/+16its not available yet according to the creater who says he could some help from developers if any are interested for the iphone. for information go to http://www.davidoreilly.com/blog/
- StuartGibson, on 06/14/2009, -5/+19The accelerometer in the iPhone is pretty sensitive so I would say there's a pretty good chance. Have a play with Cube Runner or Dizzy Bee to see the fine control you can get with it.
- infiniphunk, on 08/22/2008, -2/+16"..help us Obiwan Kenobi, you're our only hope!"
Ok, not as cool as R2-D2, but still... - ispeakasian, on 08/23/2008, -3/+16First of all, that was an iPod Touch in the video, not an iPhone.
Anyways, iPod Touches and iPhones do not sense rotation on only the Y axis(oddly, this is only limited to the Y axis). To change from portrait to landscape, you not only have to rotate the device, but also tilt it slightly downwards. This limitation is obvious if you have a sensor reader app like the ones available on the old jailbroken 1.1.4. To sum it up, the iPod/iPhone accelerometer can only sense movement on the Y axis if there is movement on the X axis or the Z axis, assuming we're using the standard coordinate plane thing. - rbd89, on 08/23/2008, -0/+13@AlPacinoTribute
"and never read digg comments"
Liar. - mnjordan, on 08/23/2008, -0/+12Mine can't copy and paste.
- mijelh, on 08/22/2008, -2/+14that's what SHE said
- Uarefat, on 08/22/2008, -2/+14forget about that app, check out the guys website, pretty sweet stuff.

- Hydrophoenix420, on 08/22/2008, -1/+12You're an idiot
- VoraciousPanda, on 08/23/2008, -0/+11There is no gyroscope in the iphone. Just accelerometers, which can't detect this type of movement.
- xcelx1023, on 08/23/2008, -0/+10MrBabyMan = Waaaaay too much time on his hands.
- FasmTrout, on 08/23/2008, -2/+12Bye.
- zenthax, on 08/23/2008, -0/+10math is boobalicious!
- o0dhacker0o, on 08/22/2008, -0/+9what?
- marnaq, on 08/22/2008, -1/+10I want to see an app that builds me a spaceship so I can fly to the ***** moon and back. Also, I want it to be free.
- lepton, on 08/22/2008, -2/+11You are correct. The iPhone accelerometer does not detect "yaw", the left-right rotation we see during the clip. It makes me suspicious.
- crashlock, on 08/23/2008, -1/+10F A K E
- GreenAlien, on 08/23/2008, -3/+12"for example, load a web page on the iphone, place the phone on a table, and rotate the phone without lifting it from the table. the web page will not rotate to adjust to single-axis movements."
MobileSafari simply ignores what the accelerometer is telling it about that axis. The developers could have accounted for that axis in some way if they wanted.
Straight from the manufacturers: "The LIS302DL is an ultra compact low-power three axes linear accelerometer."
Note that it handles rotation around all three axis, not just two. And that it's a linear accelerometer, so it measures relative acceleration around each of the three axis.
This is not a fake. - thatsgoodkarma, on 08/23/2008, -0/+8Mine can't resist dropping all my ***** calls.

Says the guy that recently dugg highly 'intellectual' submissions like "Must. Eat. Ice cream! (pic)", "15 Images You Won't Believe Aren't Photoshopped", and "Know Your Meme: All Your Base". - RomeyRome, on 08/22/2008, -0/+8It still will not give me a blowjob no matter how hard I try, nor how much I pay for the app.
- BuckyDent, on 08/23/2008, -0/+8Hologram Boobs: the best idea since Video Boobs.
- 000dnj, on 08/22/2008, -1/+8I want to see an app that uses the iphone's built in camera to create 3d models of real world images.
- WiseWeasel, on 08/23/2008, -1/+8It's because the 3D rendering perspective moves with the phone's accelerometer, so it gives the impression of peering into a 3D space as you change your phone's orientation. You just have to use your imagination as to what it might look like in person from the video...
