ShutterSnitch - wireless diplay of images on iPad

ShutterSnitch's mission is a simple one: take in photos from one or more Wi-Fi transmitter-equipped cameras, then display the photos automatically on the iPad's 9.7-inch screen. Photos can be zoomed, rated and shared via email or FTP, sent to the iPad's Photos app (or a handful of other third party apps) or uploaded to Flickr. It has specific support for wireless SD memory cards from Eye-Fi, but can accept pictures from any camera transmitter that's capable of an FTP transfer, which includes all past and current Canon and Nikon digital SLR transmitter accessories. Read the full story at Rob Galbraith's blog.

The Amazing Wooden Mirror


The concept is simple but formidably clever: a tiny camera gathers light and shape data, before sending it to a computer that processes it and uses hundreds of tiny electric motors to shift the wood blocks into the image in front of the device. Subtle gradations of shade are achieved by both the natural grain of the wood and the angle at which they are displayed, casting shadow if necessary.

National Geographic Infinite Photo

This is an infinite image of the national parks made up of thousands of amateur photos. Zoom in on a spectacular national park photo to reveal hundreds more photos making up the original. Then zoom again at each level for an endless array of images, each submitted by users to My Shot.
