Definitely check out the full list too because there ARE some great apps which didn't make it into the final 20.

theyCallMeSwift• 14 years ago

Agreed. Including a coffee pot that emails you when the coffee is made and a toilet that live tweets your music habits.

tonybaroneee2• 14 years ago

Anyone else think the inventory app has some serious potential?

benjlang• 14 years ago

Yes, brilliant.

sharadmv• 14 years ago

yea it's a great use of RFID and i hope to see it commercial within the year

The music sequencer was awesome is there a live site I can see it?

mhseiden• 14 years ago

[Max from the Team] Unfortunately, we don't have it up on a site. The reason here is that the MIDI keyboard is connected via USB, and thus would require us to establish a TCP connection to the server. The additional latency could definitely have a negative impact on responsiveness, which is a tradeoff that we didn't want to make at this time.

That being said, remote hosting of the site would be the next big feature, if we continue working on the application. ;-) [edit]

kandalf• 14 years ago

You should just put it up with a javascript keyboard! I'd love to play around with it.

LAMike3• 14 years ago

Congratulations I think it's awesome and would really be great for people who want to make mashups/mixes but don't want to spend a bunch of money on the equipment. Good luck to you and your team!

paulosman• 14 years ago

Paul from SoundCloud here. Definitely think about shipping a version that uses a web keyboard. The app is too good not to show off to everyone!

Also, got a video of your demo. I'll be posting a blog post on developers.soundcloud.com in the next couple of days. Great work!

ranman• 14 years ago

You guys should check out Mosaic: mosaic.launchrock.com

turn multiple phones into one panoramic view... for anything... including video.

CEWendel• 14 years ago

The music sequencer was awesome. Go Blue!

adamfeldman• 14 years ago

Great showing from the University of Michigan! Go Blue!

habosa• 14 years ago

Wow the Virtual Perspective app is incredibly impressive for a 48 hour hack, especially considering it was done on mobile.

tonybaroneee2• 14 years ago

Honestly, that just blew me away.

siliconc0w• 14 years ago

I wrote a similar app to SparkTab, even came up with a similar name. https://github.com/siliconcow/ARC

Haven't touched it in awhile but the one I ended up using was 'stach' which mustachified the first result in a google image search. It's also nice for organizations that can't decide on a groupware solution and you want a quick way to search anything that takes a query string.

JosephRedfern• 14 years ago

ZeitPlanner would could be very handy. It doesn't have the same WOW factor as Visual Perspective - but it could be very useful!

Void_• 14 years ago

You can write a simple cost function and then brute-force all the options in no time. I did that in school.

temiri2• 14 years ago

And here are the winners!

First place: Inventory Second place: virtual perspective Third place: Webtube

jaguar7444• 14 years ago

How do I get Virtual Perspective on my phone? I see it was an Android app... I'd love to show it off to my iOS friends lol.
