EyeFly3D Img is designed to display and help you create 3D images on the iPhone, but whether due to technical limitations or early software bugs, it does not work properly in its current form. While existing photos show up in the sample folders and you can see how the process is performed to create them, neither of the functions--display or creation--quite works as intended, and the effect is disappointing.

When you first open EyeFly3D Img you can choose between viewing the sample 3D images or creating your own, both requiring the thin film from EyeFly3D to turn your iPhone's … Read more

Apple may be aiming to challenge Samsung over eye-tracking technology.,

An Apple patent application, dubbed "Electronic Devices With Gaze Detection Capabilities," was published Thursday by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The application describes a feature in which your mobile device reacts to the movement of your head or eyes.

Turn your head or eyes away from the device, and the screen dims. Look back at the device, and the screen returns to life. Looking away could also put the entire device in standby mode, meaning certain functions are powered down to preserve battery power. In yet … Read more

EyeEm manages to cut through the plethora of photo editing and sharing apps on the App Store to provide a unique, engaging experience, unrivaled by many of its peers. While not a perfect solution to some common photo sharing issues, EyeEm manages to provide much needed improvements to many issues in an easy-to-use photo sharing tool.

EyeEm is very similar to other photo filtering apps, but does many things differently that make it not only slightly easier to use, but more effective. When you create your account, you can choose to immediately connect to Facebook or to register an independent … Read more

With high-quality digital cameras on every smartphone and apps that make your pictures even better, just about anyone can be an accomplished photographer. Sure, you may not be an accomplished photographer in any serious sense, but you can certainly upload your images to photo-sharing sites to get them out to the public and receive feedback to make your shots even better.

As most people know, there are a number of popular services already out there that let you take your shot, add effects and other enhancements, then upload it for all to see. But the other thing that's great … Read more

Eye Color Changer goes so much further than red eye removal to make your eyes look any color in the rainbow. Eye Color Changer's effect looks a little cartoony and bizarre at times, but that's probably the effect most people are going for.

This app's menu could use some major editing, itself--it's quite the eyesore. It houses eight buttons, but only two of them actually go to features in the app you really want to use. The rest beg you to rate the app and download more of the developer's apps. If you can find … Read more

EagleEyes(Lite+) lets you monitor your business remotely, but it's really limited in its reach. EagleEyes won't let you view cameras from any old manufacturer, but it's a decent app to have if you use a specific type of surveillance software.

EagleEyes only works with AVTech surveillance equipment, so look for another app if you don't use that. If you do use AVTech, this app gives you enough features and seamless operation in the free version. If you want full control, you'll need to pay $5 for the pro version. Either way, setup is easy. … Read more

Last week, Apple announced that its App Store is approaching 50 billion app downloads. In celebration of the milestone, Apple is giving away a $10,000 App Store gift card to the lucky person who initiates the 50 billionth download.

As part of the celebration, Apple listed the top 25 apps -- both free and paid -- for iPhone and iPad. None of the apps listed is particularly surprising (especially to someone who studies the most-popular list every day), but one thing that did strike me is that a lot of the all-time best sellers still sit near the top … Read more

For the roughly three percent of the population that suffers from amblyopia, or "lazy eye," the best current treatment option -- covering the stronger eye to force the weaker one into better behavior -- works only some of the time in kids and has been totally ineffective in adults.

Now researchers out of McGill University in Montreal say that playing Tetris may ultimately treat the disorder in adults because the puzzle video game trains the eyes to work together as information is distributed across them in a complementary fashion.

"The key to improving vision for adults, who … Read more
