Turn Your Friends Into iPhone Bobbleheads
Thursday, October 30th, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by Bryan Chaffin
iCloseBy.com announced Friday iBobble-3D, an iPhone/iPod touch app that allows users to take photos of themselves or their friends (or anyone else -- the company emphasized political figures in its press release), and turn them into Bobblehead figures on their iPhones and iPod touches. A tap on the screen will then send the Bobbleheads bobbing away.
Users can also make custom Bobblehead figures, change backgrounds, and generally waste all manner of time playing with your virtual bobbleheads.
"iBobble-3D then uses the accelerometer which is built into the iPhone and iPod touch to transfer finger taps, pinches and shakes to spin the virtual bobblehead," the company said in a statement. "The more someone shakes their iPhone or iPod touch, the more iBobble-3D will nod and bobble."
iBobble-3D is priced at US$.99 on the App Store.
