3D Now Available On The iPhone

3D is now available on the iPhone thanks to Florida-based developer Kode80. The HoloToy app uses the iPhone’s accelerometer to manipulate 3D images. With the new iPhone 4 front facing camera, users will now be able to track head motions and this will add even more realism to the 3D images.

The HoloToy app distorts scenes in a way that human brains would expect and is based on the angle you view the image from.

The application originally relied on the iPhone’s accelerometer to determine the viewing angle of its images, but thanks to the front camera on the iPhone 4, head movements can now be tracked in order to determine the best angle to view the image. This means that users can look around the 3D scene from head movements alone.

HoloToy includes 13 interactive 3D Holograms, including four games. You can also create your own 3D pics with a function called My HoloPics; its built-in depth and transparency editor lets you create your own 3D scenes and store them in your own 3D photo gallery.

HoloToy costs $1 and runs on iOS 3, though to take advantage of the head tracking feature, you’ll need an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.
