Screen Stick: paste a ‘real’ joystick on your iPhone or iPad – iculture

screen-stick We have over the years written a few times about opplakjoysticks for your iDevice : by placing them in the correct position of the screen, you can control a game with a physical movement button. Nice, but almost all of these joysticks actually did not feel as example the sticks on an Xbox controller. The Screen Stick grabs therefore different: this opplakstick has the same shape as those on a gamepad and is even available in the form of a simulator stick

You stick the Screen Stick on the virtual joystick on the iPhone or iPad screen. The accessory will work with pretty much all of iOS games, without the developer having to release a special update. As the maker has his joystick already tested with FIFA 15 , Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , Minecraft Pocket Edition , Real Racing 3 and more games

The inventors of the Screen Stick raise money on Kickstarter . Insert your least 11 pounds (15 euros) in the project, you will get sent one set, which includes parts for both gamepad- as the simulation version. Would you stick two sticks on the screen? Then you need at least 19 pounds (26 euros) donation. The project has to go 16 days, but has already raised the target amount of £ 6,000.

The Screen Stick provides a nice alternative if you would like to use real buttons while gaming. Although you can also go one step further: since Apple does not support iOS 7 MFi controllers, which can be used in a number of games

Making Movies with iPad is central to new advertising – Tablets Magazine

During the annual Academy Awards ceremony Apple has launched a new advertisement for the iPad Air 2, one focus point: making movies on your iPad. Both filming and editing.

Personally, I must not think to make a movie with a tablet and disturb me there when I have to look at a concert what happens on stage by look at other people’s tablet screen. But Apple will find the Apple iPad Air 2 a fantastic device to deal with it videos. No, not just videos: complete films are shot with the iPad. The video is dedicated to them below, including sound clips from a speech that Martin Scorsese held at a university.

In addition, Apple has thrown a special website in the air, which we can see some movies created on the iPad: those projects are filmed and edited it on. Also you can read on their website about the applications that the videos are assembled, namely Final Draft, GarageBand and Video Grade (but certainly not iMovie, that seems to be meant for consumers). You can check the video above to see how all filmmakers so have deployed their iPads while making their own films.

The iPad Air 2 is, as the name suggests, the successor to the iPad Air that was announced in 2013. It is a tablet with a screen of 9.7 inches with a resolution of 2048 by 1536 pixels. The best on the screen of the Air 2 is laminated display: not only does this make the tablet thinner, also reflections appear less clear. Under the hood, we see Apple A8X-Processor, a processor designed specifically for the iPad Air 2. The chip uses the second generation of 64-bit architecture.

In the game you run away for Jade Emperor, but occasionally take on against bosses and you have to follow the instructions on the screen.

Additionally, you can convert numbers, such as speed, currencies and weights.

The iPad version is exactly what you expect: all tricks from Google Inbox are also included in the iPad app, such as bundles advertising emails collecting or displaying at the top of emails you received earlier today but are important
