障害物によって、太陽の光が当たるかどうかを確かめるためのシミュレーションAR

Solmetric Corporation has released the Solmetric iSV Sun Viewer iPhone application which allows you to make a quick assessment of the timing and impact of shading obstructions. The iSV application uses the iPhone camera to provide an "augmented reality" view of the sun paths at your location. This allows you to make a quick assessment of the timing and impact of shading obstructions. Solmetric iSV can be used for evaluation of solar access for solar energy systems, landscaping, agriculture, photography, event planning, or real estate assessment. In the camera view, the user can see how the obstructions interact with the sun path. Where an obstruction overlaps a sun path, shading will occur.

iPadのような操作が簡単で、親しみ易いインターフェイスを持ったデバイスは、高年齢者や低年齢者にとっても新しい可能性を与えてくれるようだ。キーボードアレルギーという言葉も有るが、過去の言葉になることだろう。
『iPadは、「(彼女の)人生を変えてくれた」とCampbellさんの娘であるGinny Adelsheimさんは、The Oregonianのインタビューに対して述べた。Adelsheimさんによると、Campbellさんは現在、読めるサイズにまで文字を拡大するiPadの機能を使って、iPadで本を読んでいるという。Campbellさんは、ディスプレイの輝度も上げることにより、さらに読みやすい環境を得ているという。また、これまで一度もコンピュータを所有した経験がないにもかかわらず、今では同タブレットで詩を書いているという。 』
