iPhone Testing Apps on Your Device

So you want to try out these apps you’re building on a real iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch. The iPhone Simulator is great, and you can use it to do most of your iPhone development without using a device at all. However, there comes a point where you want to test how your code interacts with the phone’s camera, video, compass, GPS, accelerometer, or iPod APIs. You need to make sure your app performs well on a real device. And, perhaps most importantly, you want to show your friends what you’ve been working tirelessly on these past few weeks.

Science, Technology, and Society Studies

A small tradition of science and technology studies (STS) has developed primarily in the three Scandinavian countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden). It has, in parallel with working life science, attempted to focus more on the development of than on the impact of technology. In Norway two STS institutions have been created that serve as examples of this work.

One is the Center for Technology and Human Values (now the Centre for Technology, Innovation and Culture), which was headed by Francis Se jested in the period 1988–1998. Se jested (1993) examined how a special form of capitalism has developed in Norway that is anchored in democratic, egalitarian, and local values in contrast to Chandlers (1990) notions of corporate and competitive capitalism in Germany and United States. Other researchers at this institution have shown how the transfer of technology to Norway as well as innovation processes can be seen as being intertwined with regional social structures and local values, leading to special forms of localized innovation (Wicked 1998).

Rise of Full Frame HD DSLRs

In the last few years, we have seen the rise of full frame (HD)DSLR cameras hitting the market. These cameras are called full frame because the sensor is the same size as a 35mm piece of film, so photos are incredibly similar to the old film look. Lately, more and more companies have been putting these types of sensors out. A lot of this has to do with the fact that many of these cameras are also being used for filmmaking. The filmmaking aspect of this has revolutionized the industry because filmmakers are able to shoot videos that are visually very close to the look of film. Beyond this, there are other aspects that are helping these cameras, though expensive, become more and more popular in the filmmaking and photography.
