“PocketCam turns iPhone + iPad into webcam for Skype” #ios #apps #opinions / SML.20130123.IPH5.iOS.Apps.PocketCam.Skype.Opinions

After affixing the iPad on the Hover Bar, I thought that it would be an excellent webcam to do video conference with. And apparently I had the same idea more than a year ago—because I already own the app for it: PocketCam by Senstic. It seems that I gave up on it before because doing teleconference while holding a device is no fun, but now that the iPad hover hands free it makes things easier.

 

In case you have no idea wtf is going on in this photo, I have zoomed in my monitor to show the Skype preferences window. By point the iPad cam to the greatly zoomed in window, I created a gigantic feedback delayed video loop. It is delayed because the video signal path to slow. But it is fun as you can see the windows rotate one by one over time. You see, lag is good for _something_. :)
