technogarden··on Think GPS is cool? IPS will blow your mind
I cannot wait for this to get some adoption! I love augmented reality, but the current state-of-the-art is not exactly suited for AR applications. If this chip can deliver on its promises, I think we'll see an explosion in AR as it finally starts to look real. The main problem with AR on mobile devices as I see it is a visual one - very intense jitter due to inaccurate GPS and gyroscope data. If IPS can pinpoint AR objects not based on visual markers or inaccurate GPS, then I think we are quickly headed into Dennou Coil territory. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denn%C5%8D_Coil)
technogarden··on Send faxes & sign documents from Google Drive… powered by HelloFax
Faxes are probably one of the most annoying things I have to deal with since I don't have a fax machine. Next time I need to send a fax I'll definitely try out this service - anything beats traipsing over to Albertsons!
technogarden··on Show HN: Beautiful login and signup views for iOS with a few lines of code
I've been using Parse for a month or so and I've been really impressed by how powerful the platform is, and the rate at which they are adding features and libraries. I also have to say they have some great customer service and take bug reports and feature requests seriously and professionally. I have yet to deploy with them, so I can't speak about performance or scalability, but if anyone is interested I could document my journey. Kudos to the Parse team!
