The Consumer Electronics Show - CES affectionately called - is not the only major trade show every year. In fact, far from it. For Apple fans, the highlight of the year is March Macworld in San Francisco, and I watched the show last week to see what was new, especially for iOS users. You know, for iPhones and iPads. Here are the coolest things I came across:
5. Ring. Here's a gadget that I recently included in our round-up of favorite Kickstarter campaigns. Ring is a piece of jewelry with wireless connection you can use to control all kinds of devices and technology around your home using hand gestures. It sounds like science fiction, but I've seen it demonstrated (even in prototype form) at the show.
4. HandyPhoto. Photo editing apps for the iPhone and iPad are a dime a dozen. Unless, I suppose, if you consider that many of them are free. But HandyPhoto surprised me. Here is a photo editor that has a wealth of professional caliber editing and retouching tools, including some impressive features clever editing. I love the ability to select an object and move it to the scene (or transplantation to another image). You also "uncrop" a photo can - to extend the background magic as you can do in previous editions of Photoshop. It is $ 3, and worth every penny.
3. appetites. Speaking of iPad applications, appetites is a great mash-up of an application recipe and traditional meal delivery service. Imagine having a digital cookbook on your tablet, but with the ability to select a specific recipe and the ingredients arrive at your door the next day - it's appetites. The application is very cool, with a focus on the videos to explain step by step how to prepare each meal in detail. And the delivery service is currently operational in some selected cities (such as San Francisco and Los Angeles). The application is free, giving you access to a limited number of revenue each month. For unlimited access, you can pay a small subscription (about $ 2 / month).
2. Olloclip 4-in-1 Ipad. You've already seen a 4-in-1 for iPhone, and actually I include it in our video ROUNDUP tab holiday gadget. Olloclip returned after the adapter to fit the IPad. Olloclip told me that they decided to do so because IPADS used simply as more and more cameras. After all, tourists have noticed that you keep IPad into the air to take a picture - or maybe you did it alone. Using Ipad, the camera seems a bit ridiculous, and it can be ignored, especially if you are blocking sight of someone else, then I ask you to use common sense and a bit of the Court to take pictures with the tablet. But if you, at least do it with the help of Ollocip stunning 4-in-1, giving you two lenses macro, wide angle and fisheye lens in a compact body. Will be available in April for $ 70.
1. FLIR ONE. My favorite show was FLIR camera ONE, a case of manga for the iPhone with integrated thermal camera. This makes your iPhone a powerful infrared imager, which you can use to see in total darkness. The heat sources can see through walls, be used for personal safety, and more. I played with him on the show, and took this image of the company representative. It will be available later this year for about $ 350.
