It used to be point-and-click. Now it's multitouch and thumb-type. But as far as we've come, some interfaces still feel extremely clunky and unsatisfying. What comes next? This session takes a look at how we can start to go beyond multitouch by using other sensors -- especially the gyroscope and the camera -- to enable totally new user experiences. You'll learn how to build a better undo feature using the Gyroscope via DeviceMotion. You'll see how to build a 3D interface using augmented reality to create a bigger virtual workspace that exceeds an iPad, but all within the confines of an iPhone screen. You'll leave with a glimpse of the future of mobile interfaces that have evolved further away from the desktop paradigm into something entirely mobile, natural, and spatial.
Conference attendees had this to say about the session:
- Easily the best session of the day.
- Happy that Jeff focused on specific example of Core Motion---topic lends itself to a lot of hand waving.
- Excellent, fantastic, brilliant. Thoroughly enjoyed the presentation great speaker.
