StatusBeta – Wearable Device Testing Platform

yosun — Sun, 17 Nov 2013 12:51:01 +0000

I extended to a testing platform, a website that might look like an app store but is really just a bunch of my own Glass hacks – with virtual tryouts.

And then I entered it in the Salesforce Million Dollar Hackathon… which was a bit haphazardly managed, such that they ended up giving a tie for first place and up-ing the first place prize to giving away two million dollar prizes – however, I did not win. (I would probably not be feeling glum enough to document my hacks, if that happened.)

gyroFIRE Platform – Scoble @ TechCrunch

Scoble invited me to show off some of my Glass Hacks as the wildcard entry with a 1 in 6 chance of winning $10k in his Glass event during TechCrunch – since many of them use the gyroscope, I tried expanding to a startup-ish, generalizing a natural user interface platform based on the gyroscope – along with some other sensors, such as camera (CV), light sensor, connectivity.

The app demo’s I showed were:

Creativity – gyroSculpt
Data – Weather Glass
Shop – StyleZapper
Build – Minecraft for Glass (basically, gyroFIRE Create mode)
3D Angry Birds for Glass (really, just launching things that bounce around)

Lightbox Reality

Create your comp on real surfaces with the Augmented Reality Lightbox UI!

Enter a search term or select from color swatches via Shutterstock API. Swipe to browse through images to add to your lightbox. Features semantic image search, finding similar images by pinching in on an image (pinch out to go back). Touch a candidate lightbox image and drag to your pasteboard. Go to lightbox mode to place your image on the real surface it might actually go in! Use filters from ImageShack to enhance your photos. yfrog tweet your shot when ready!

All images backed up to dropbox!

(Begin by finding the real world surface you want to place your image comp in, then place your phone parallel to it and capture the green crosshair.)
