Swivl

Recently I have been testing out Swivl, a new assistive tool that turns your phone or camera into a self-tracking camera.

''The Swivl tracks movement via a sensor while your iPhone shoots smooth panning video. It tilts up and down and rotates a whole 360 degrees.

The Swivl knows who or what you want to film by tracking an easy-to-wear and super compact 3-in-1 sensor. The sensor acts as a sensor for movement, a microphone for crystal clear audio and a remote for fine-tuned Swivl control.''


This video shows just a couple of the features of the Swivl.  I think it's a great tool for students and teachers alike, it can be used to record lectures for distance learning with no fuss. You can move around as you wish and the Swivl will follow.

More on the Swivl soon!




 Swivi you can go from the iPhone 3 to a iPhone 5 and now with iPad 3 and lot more
