Magic 8 Ball + Accelerometer ?

5 replies · 7,354 views · Started 23 November 2007

This seems (to me at least!) an obvious use for the accelerometer. There are many online versions of Magic 8-ball fortune telling/advice giving/question answering, but nothing quite compares to having one in the flesh and giving it a shake....being able to do this on your N95 you would always have advice there when you need it most 😉

So - anyone seen this/fancy writing it ?

I want to say that people are busy writing useful apps for the accelerometer but invaders and lightsabres say otherwise 😊
Not that i'm complaining, I LOVE my lightsabre! The 8-ball would seem quite a simple thing to program, especially as it doesn't really need any specific information from the accelerometer, just a lot of rapid readings!

^^ haha 😊

Yeah i wouldnt mind this too if someone wouldnt mind creating it - that would be ace! HAHA 😃

Like super monkey ball!

Or marble madness (for us oldies)!!

Or even just a rolling ball maze game!!!

Want toys... 😉
