Amazon Fire phone packs 6 cameras for 3D effects and object scanning
As expected Amazon has today launched its first smartphone, the Fire Phone, at an event in Seattle, Washington. Amazon wants to differentiate the new device from the competition with two new and unique features. Dynamic Perspective is a 3D-user interface that changes the screen content based on where your face is in relation to the device. The Fire uses four cameras with a 120 degree viewing angle, one in each front corner, to track your eyes. Infrared lights ensure the feature is still working in darkness. Dynamic Perspective ties in...

Faster UI Animations With Velocity.js By Julian Shapiro June 18th, 2014 CSSJavaScriptTechniques 2 Comments From a motion design perspective, Facebook.com is phenomenally static. It’s purposefully dumbed down for the broadest levels of compatibility and user comfort. Facebook’s iOS apps, on the other hand, are fluid. They prioritize the design of motion; they feel like living, breathing apps. This article serves to demonstrate that this dichotomy does not need to exist; websites can benefit from the same level of interactive and...

read moreHow to Make Stronger Photographs Through the Process of Visual Design
A Post By: Barry J Brady Photography is an art that relies on light. It also relies heavily on the visual message. You have no way of communicating anything to your viewer except through the visual language you use. If you use strong visual elements, your images will be effective and people will stop and look. If you want to convey a message, use the most powerful visual imagery you can: color to enhance your scene, light to punctuate it, and use shapes and texture to fill in the details. Doing this will not only be more satisfying for you as...
read moreHow to do Surreal Digital Infrared Photography Without Expensive Gear or Camera Conversions
A Post By: Alex Morrison Photos made with invisible infrared light, rather than visible light, yield wildly strange and eerie photographs that always have the “WOW Factor.â€Â For landscapes or scenic imagery, infrared (IR) photography is highly regarded as fine art. But back in the days of film photography, shooting infrared was complicated, expensive and the results were often not great. For those with determination though, that one image that did ‘work†was always worth the trouble. But now the complexity of capturing infrared...
read moreSony’s curved sensors may allow for simpler lenses and better images
The sensors inside digital cameras are – generally – flat. But curved sensors promise greater sensitivity, better image quality, and provide scope for simpler lenses. Speaking at the VLSI symposium in Hawaii, Sony device manager Kazuichiro Itonaga showed a full-frame sensor and a smaller, 11mm diagonal sensor (which would be classed as 2/3″-type). The former is suited well for a fixed-lens full-frame camera (such as the RX1), while the latter is sized similarly to sensors in enthusiast compacts as well as the Nokia...
