Motion Tracking iPhone Dock Keeps Video Calls On Point
FaceTime is a key feature of the iPhone 4 and 4S, one that Apple has featured prominently in its advertising. For family and friends separated by long distances, FaceTime is the first successful mass-market video calling service. But, for anyone who has used the service, holding the iPhone up to chat is mildly annoying. That"s where the Swivl comes in. The Swivl is an iPhone dock that uses motion tracking to swivel the phone -- and thus the front-facing camera -- to follow your every move, both horizontally and vertically. It also comes with a wireless remote to control the camera and start-and-stop recording, useful for video-bloggers. Need a video of you skateboarding but have no cameraman? The Swivl is for you: The Swivl is available for pre-order for $159.99, and is set to launch early next year.
