Book Synopsis Basic Sensors in iOS by : Alasdair Allan

Download or read book Basic Sensors in iOS written by Alasdair Allan. This book was released on 2011-07-22. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What really sets the iPhone apart from laptops and PCs is its use of onboard sensors, including those that are location-enabled. This concise book takes experienced iPhone and Mac developers on a detailed tour of iPhone and iPad hardware by explaining how these sensors work, and what they're capable of doing. With this book, you'll build sample applications for each sensor, and learn hands-on how to take advantage of the data each sensor produces. You'll gain valuable experience that you can immediately put to work inside your own iOS applications for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. This book helps you focus on: Camera: learn how to take pictures and video, create video thumbnails, customize video, and save media to the photo album Audio: use the media picker controller and access the iPod music library in your own application, and enable your app to record and play sampled audio Accelerometer: write an application that uses this sensor to determine device orientation Magnetometer: learn how this sensor verifies compass headings Core Motion: use this framework to receive motion data from both the accelerometer and the vibrational gyroscope This short book is part of a collection that will, along with new material, be compiled into a larger book, iOS Sensor Programming. The other books in this collection are Augmented Reality in iOS, Geolocation in iOS, and iOS Sensor Apps with Arduino.

Book Synopsis iOS Sensor Programming by : Alasdair Allan

Download or read book iOS Sensor Programming written by Alasdair Allan. This book was released on 2013-03-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although developers have covered a lot of topics and activities with more than 725,000 apps for iOS devices, they have yet to tap the riches of location-based and augmented reality applications. This book shows you how to use iPhone's sensors -- the three-axis accelerometer, GPS, digital compass, and camera -- to build cutting-edge location-aware apps that interact with the physical world. You can easily access iPhone's sensors, but interpreting the data you get back from them is tricky. Harder still is combining the input from several sensors with outside data sets. This book shows you how to put it all together. It's ideal for experienced iPhone programmers, game programmers, augmented reality programmers, and geo hackers. Get an introduction to the hot topic of programming iPhone's built-in sensors Learn how to create sensor-aware apps that respond to a user's location Understand the basics of augmented reality programming Build apps that combine data from the accelerometer, GPS, digital compass, and camera Connect iOS devices to Arduino and connect to external sensors This book is based on a collection of books that was published earlier, along with additional material not available elsewhere. The books in this collection are Augmented Reality in iOS, Geolocation in iOS, iOS Sensor Apps with Arduino, and Basic Sensors in iOS.

Book Synopsis iOS Sensor Apps with Arduino by : Alasdair Allan

Download or read book iOS Sensor Apps with Arduino written by Alasdair Allan. This book was released on 2011-09-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turn your iPhone or iPad into the hub of a distributed sensor network with the help of an Arduino microcontroller. With this concise guide, you’ll learn how to connect an external sensor to an iOS device and have them talk to each other through Arduino. You’ll also build an iOS application that will parse the sensor values it receives and plot the resulting measurements, all in real-time. iOS processes data from its own onboard sensors, and now you can extend its reach with this simple, low-cost project. If you're an Objective-C programmer who likes to experiment, this book explains the basics of Arduino and other hardware components you need—and lets you have fun in the process. Learn how to connect the Arduino platform to any iOS device Build a simple application to control your Arduino directly from an iPad Gather measurements from an ultrasonic range finder and display them on your iPhone Connect an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch to an XBee radio network Explore other methods for connecting external sensors to iOS, including Ethernet and the MIDI protocol
