Elevation chart : process your datum data on the iPhone

This iPhone app has been developed for surveyor and architect to builders in this line of profession. Elevation chart is used to calculate the elevation if ground level anywhere in the world using google maps. Yes I know that google earth on the Pc
Has this feature but it's not portable and it doesn't produce a chart of the level between two points giving you a site section.






Using elevation chart iPhone app users will find a faster way to get co-ordinates and ground lines and datums at their finger tips on site. This will help architects and builders to have a better understanding of the ground lines whilst doing a site analysis.





Alternatively you could just use the single pin to pin point one inquired level or datum on site. There are many ways to use the iPhone app elevation chart, above are only examples of how I use this app.





Final impressions : this app is not an alternative to a surveyors Drawing. But it will give you a very accurate reading for an analysis on site meeting ect. I hope to see major improvements in future updates giving users a way to draw up a plan of contours by choosing all corners of the site. This is very possible, watch out land surveyors, iPhone plans to take your job. Steve jobs

Toon Camera: take cartoonist pictures with iPhone

When I first used this iPhone app Toon Camera I realized it was made with intentions not only for special effects but for artists to use in a way that you wouldn't expect. Toon camera has a live view displaying the image in either black and white sketch, or color cartoon sketch. Both these views have superb quality finish and will be enjoyed by professionals or everyday users. So how do we use this as an artist ? You should take a picture in black and white sketch of the desired subject you would like to render. Doing this is a lazy way but super efficient and can still have the effect on the finished product. You then take your black and white picture and render it in autodesk SketchBook app. Using these two apps will give you the perfect render that looks professional. This app can further be used for the everyday user that would like a picture fully rendered with just a click, this image will look like a cartoon render, hence ToonCamera. The below image shows a color render using ToonCamera for iPhone





The below image shows a black and white render





These settings include adjusting your stroke thickness making it darker or lighter. In both modes using a softer pen will give you a better finish.





Final impressions: iPhone app ToonCamera is not the only camera app that can produce this effect, there are alternatives in the app store but I find this app superior. This app will award you with perfect shots to email to clients, post to facebook and twitter, mms a friend or simply post to you blogs like I have. I rate this app 4/5

Unaware of iPhones potential users need to look for apps such as Lens Flare iPhone app. This app perform one task only, Place a lens flare where you need it for a desired effect. Here is an example of how I would use lens flare. Below is a pic I edited using lens flare to give the desires "sparkle" to the pic.

But don't get me wrong you can use it in many ways and be creative. You are provided with many types of lens flares as shown in the picture below.





Using different types of lend flares for different tones and subjects makes this app worth it. Applying these flares are done by touching where you want it then pinching to adjust the size or rotate for Angel flare. Using these techniques in your pictures will help make a professional picture in a short time and makes it easy for anyone to do. No need for photoshop skills to edit pictures.





Final impression: lens flare iPhone app has kept me amazed by the quality lens you can apply to pictures and without pixelating. User friendliness is a major breakthrough, future update will keep you happy with features. What's nice about iPhone apps is you need to integrate like 7 apps to one picture to get a desired effect. At the end of your editing you can have a picture that you would usually do on Photoshop just in shorter time.

DigiDrummer: professional drummer alternative for iPhone 4

When I saw this app I expected the regular drum app that has a picture of a drum set from top view with sounds tagged to the right places where your finger touches the screen coupled with the sounds to give a drum effect, these apps are useless, however DigiDrummer gave me a real feeling if drumming that professionals use around the world.


The above pic shows the layout of the drums, I know it's not the most attractive like the rest in the app store but it's made like this for a good reason, personally I would prefer utility over aesthetics. Your layout gives you all the crashes , snares and kicks, but since you using your fingers you get more space to do a drum roll, yes you heard right , you can drum roll with this amazing app and that's what makes it a better app than the rest, but also it has the vest sound ever when hooked up to an amp and good speaker set. Here's a look at the drum roll options and settings.


Above is the settings menu, you can change the Drum roll pace. Slide your finger along the kick and see your skill like a pro sounding drummer. DigiDrummer has many drum kits so it's not the boring standard drum kit, giving you freedom to make a custom drum kit for your needs makes DigiDrummer amazing. You can change the skin To 3 different types , personally I pike the black as seen in my demo, it's way better for drum rolling. You can also play along with your music by playing your iPod in the background and playing DigiDrummer app, it sound great for practice sessions. Another great utility is that you cam save your recordings and send them to your friend over Bluetooth provided he got the same app.



Final Impression: DigiDrummer by software is made for professionals in the industry, it's my favorite drumming app, and I can't replace it as it stands out from the rest in the app store, from a critiqued point of view this app cannot be faulted. Happy drumming :)

Business card recognition app: world card

Many business men have iPhones for various resons, not because it's the best phone or most expensive but mainly that it serves business men with tools they need, now the app store has just launched another reason for business men to love their iPhones. World card reader takes
The hassle out of storing business cards. You now have a electronic business card book that gets backedup , so there's no reason to worry about losing cards. This app not only saves the business card but it also reads/ recognizes cards and puts them into your phone book, not only does it recognize the name and number for your contact book but also saves the shop or street address for gps navigation and saves email for emailing. Taking about efficiency. That's what the iPhones all about. This not only makes your pocket smaller but it's also a neat way to approach accepting business cards from clients. Tell them you would rather save paper and keep their card, all you need is a pic of it.











The above screen shots show you how the app works, trust me this app recognizes English and most other languages, it reads most text used in business cards, however it won't read the cheap business cards that are not laid out by a printing company format. If it's a ugly cheap card then it won't read it. However I'm sure if you a business man you not going to do business with a wanna be.
