A bunch of amateurs (not necessarily unskilled) programmers have developed software for the iPad that uses it’s front facing camera to track your face (particularly the direction from which you are viewing) and uses that information to create the illusion of depth on the screen. The iPad can be moved around and the image will relocate itself in real-time to keep up the illusion, it’s very similar to the hologram software we posted a while back. You can watch it in action after the break, but be careful not to fall in love or anything cuz then you’ll be lost in the fourth dimension with Brak and Harvey Birdman.
