[Q] App that mirrors the screen to use it as a HUD

Hi there. I need an app that mirrors the screen of my android phone to use it as a HUD in my car. I've already found an app that shows the current speed mirrored, but i would like to have it for other apps, too. So that i can use apps like Google Maps Navigation with my front window.
I googled a lot, but i sadly didn't find anything...

I'm confused.
You want this displayed ... how? where?
Please share the name/developer of the other app you've already found. Give us an idea of what you are talking about.
When you say HUD (heads up display), the only thing I can think of is some sort of projected display on your windshield
THAT WOULD EFFING AWESOME!!!!

if i understand Phexi right, he wants to put his phone under the windshield in a way that enables you to see the reflection of the screen in the windshield. works great during night trips.
usual problem - everything is mirrored.

wow that's a good idea!

This is exactly what i wanted to tell you
Yeah, the "evrything is mirrored" can be a problem, but with the help of a homescreen widget (maybe with a mirrored text ) it should be possible to switch back very easily
With an AMOLED display it should look very good (when the rest is black), but it has to be mirrored to work.
should look like this then

I think 5 is enough. Any of these float your boat? (those all *should* have mirrored "HUD" settings so when laid on your dash under your windshield you get the effect of the BMW HUD above. I haven't tried any of them personally, though.)

He isn't looking for a speedometer, he wants to mirror his screen for all apps, so that way he can use the maps app or the navigation app or any other app of his choosing and see it on his windshield. Before you go off on your next pissy fit, read carefully.

i bet it wont be that hard to make......if no one can find one, i bet i can make one....

Maybe Cyanogenmod can incorporate it into his RenderFX mod.

Wow... feel better?
You are right, I didn't read carefully - I read looking for a HUD, scrolled down saw more HUD talk, more talking of speedo HUD's, so I wen't on appbrain and looked for some.
Just trying to help. I guess this another forum I'll stop contributing to. I don't need to deal with know-it-all jerks like you, I get enough of you people in real life.
Sorry OP, just trying to help. I don't see any way to do it unless you made the OS and all the apps (at least the relevant ones) mirrored in a custom ROM.
Goodbye.

Would you be able to? I'm looking for something similar - at least have the directions (via google nav perhaps?) & speed mirrored on the windscreen.
If possible, please share

If you are the first to do it, you could easily charge $1 and make a mint...I would recommend a trial version with a, say, 14 day trial period.

like so:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqtHZE-8fCw
is this it?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.scientific.car&hl=en

Any progress on this? This would be an excellent app idea but due to my limited development knowledge someone else will have to work on it. This app will allow anyone to use their phone/tablet to project image on a semi-reflective surface and serve as a cheap full-screen navigation/media center solution.
I will be willing to purchase it as an initial customer and even make a small donation for its development.

How bout the app up there?

No, the app in the link only mirrors some text based info. We need something that can flip the display contents on the y-axis. This way when you project the screen contents the reverse text and graphics appear normal. I do not believe there's anything in the market that currently offers to do this.

it should be easy to develop.
Or not?

Any updates on this anyone? There seems to be niche demand for this thereby warranting someone to do the great work.

Just guessing here but I would think that this would be easier accomplished baked in as a feature of a launcher or a ROM rather than an app

[APP] Beta test - Light meter - Photographers

Hi,
I've been developing a photographic light meter app for Android. It has got the stage where it is almost ready for release, so I want to ask for your help with a spot of beta testing to work out the kinks!
The app can be downloaded here (just unzip the apk, put it on your sd card and install from there).
In a nutshell, what the app does is take a reading of the current light level, and display the correct exposure settings, it can also be used as a regular exposure and depth of field calculator. It should be fairly intuitive to use, but if you have any problems just post up and I'll try and help!
Ideally what I need is the make and model of your phone, if metering worked, how (in)accurate the metering was and any other comments/notes
Note: Landscape orientation is not finished, so expect weird layout issues there!
Thanks for the help!
Tom Reay

Hi - it's not of great interest to me due to the fact I hardly take pictures with my phone, however I would have thought there would be masses of people killing for an app like this.
Here's hoping you get the response you need as we need to keep the developers like you around that come up with the niche applications for the community

some of the settings I found a bit confusing, for camera type I am not sure what you meant, I have a Panasonic "four-thirds system" so I choose that but I did not use my camera to compare to instead I used my handheld light meter (Sekonic Twinmate L-208), for device I selected HTC Hero, offset I left at zero...
Here are my first test results:

Okay I get what you mean by camera type, you mean the type of camera I would need a light meter for, that being my Mamiya C220 which is a 6 x 6 format film camera:
I will re-test tomorrow in the light day

Just a question: Why would your app need to read phone state?

Actually, its the other one
I changed the package name and forgot to remove the old apk!
First bug found by NexuSix, the devices should be set to standard unless you have an HTC Hero, not the other way around! However the app should pick up which device your using automatically, the device state access is for the light metering, nothing to worry about but glad to see people paying attention to the permissions apps are asking for!
As for camera type, most DSLRs are APS-C, I'll change the names to make it a bit clearer
Be aware that the metering is only as accurate as the hardware in your phone, which might not be very accurate!
Thanks for the testing so far

Holy cow, this is amazing. I will try it out immediately.
I have a Nikon D40, which, apart from being good and cheap, has the best lens compatibility of any Nikon DSLR, including the professional ones. Downside is the meter doesn't work for pre-AI lenses. This app is going to change my life.

Wow, this is cool. I will test this with my X10 and see how it does.
EDIT: It says light sensor not found, but the X10 does have an ambient light sensor.

Wow! It's p pretty awesome!
But I can't make the dof work... Near, far, dof, always zero...

A few others have noticed some accuracy issues with the DoF calculation, which I'm looking into, but it should work.
Can you try these settings for me and let me know what it does?
EV - 13
f/16
Focal L - 50mm
Subject D. - 10m
Wow, this is cool. I will test this with my X10 and see how it does.

This will be because the app uses the standard Android API for accessing the light sensor, which some manufacturers have decided not to implement, I have found a workaround for the HTC Hero, I'll have a look into the X10

I'll try this app cause im a hobbyist photographer

Anyone try this on a MT3G Slide? My gf is a photography student and this app would probably "wow" her... I don't know a thing about camera settings, but I'd install this on her phone as a little surprise if it works...
Neat idea.

I try these settings, but I get this result (screen shot). I think there is a problem with units, when dof is too small its shows zero, as units are always meters.
On the other hand, in the screen shot, dof is 11000 m, but should be 11.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

Ok thanks for the screen shot, I've updated the app, can you redownload and install and see if its fixed for me please?
Also the DoF will be displayed in whatever unit you select when setting the Subject D., it can also be switched to imperial units in the menus

Now it works ok!
Well almost... If you calculate dof, and then you press the trackball to meter, all dof values becomes zero.
Great app!

Sound Box
It reacts on a shaking and makes your phone act as a bell, drum, rattle, wind chimes and other such a stuff. It's a toy for fun. Some users noted that children also love it.
So shake your phone, have fun!
The goal
Actually the initial idea came from my friend. She said: it would be cool if you'll shake your phone and it will sound like a junk in a metal box or like a broken device. Totally broken. Later me and my friends came up with an invention to add a bell, maracas and more. When I started, the main goal was to make an app that authentically behave like a rattle, a bell, etc. I tried to get a realistic reaction to the phone shaking. Among other things, different sounds for different strength of shaking - just like real things. Hope I've succeeded.
Variations
There are two versions: lite and full. Lite version contains limited set of sound themes. For now there are small bell, darbuka and "digital" sound (simple sine harmonics). Full one is a set of about 20 sound themes. There are, in addition to lite ones, metal and bamboo wind chimes, maracas, rattlesnake, jingle bells, tin can with junk (yeah that junk from the initial idea) and much more. For now full version is paid.
Requirements
- Android 1.5+.
- No additional permissions required.
Notes
The application locks most of the buttons by default. You could switch it off: see Menu -> Settings for details!

Yeah, why not. Actually there was an idea to make it possible for users to create sound themes by themself and share it with anyone. Right now I finishing my first game. After it possibly I'll made it.
Anyway I'll try to record some nice guitar sound and add it to the existing set.

C'mon guys, just tell what you think! Is it good? Is it bad? Is it boring? Just anything... How do you think, what would be great to add/change here?

Well, ok...

nice app!
the sound theme list is too short in the free app though..

I would suggest you to put a full version and let ppl try it out
Then, you lock the update after you have received all the comments and recommendation

nice app.
But i can't download the Full version via the QR code, and i couldn't find it on android market

great app with far reaching potential. needs more sounds though.

Yeah, may be, I'm not sure (that somebody will shake the phone so far as to damage it). Anyways, it's not necessary to shake it too hard. There is a setting of the sensitivity in the application. But maybe you're right. Maybe I'll add a warning to the application's description. Just in case.

Sorry mate with respect have to give this the thumbs down, i was expecting at leaast 10/15 different sounds not just 3,my young son might like it if there were some cartoon noises but only 3 uninstalled..sorry.

i'll try.
seems nice

I would like to see if you could add a converter from cubic feet to cubic meters.
.... and just to make it complicated a conversion from cfm (cubic feet per minute) to cmm (cubic meter per minute).
Also in the pressure conversion if possible could you add IWC (inches of water column) please?
TIA

I really like this app especially the ease of use.
Something i recomend adding is shoe sizes(male to female, us to uk, etc).

Fuel Consumption.
Is fuel consumption count correctly?
I tried 89 MPG (UK) = 0.3150 Liters/100km which can't be true.
Correct should be 3.28 Liters/100km
Or am I doing something something wrong?

Announcing SeeFood BETA 1.0
SeeFood is a simple interface which helps you to recognise food categories with ease, a concept which was introduced in a TV Show (Silicon Valley) in S04E03. (Clipping here : https://youtu.be/5_U2TN0vk3w)​
Disclaimer
1. Since the application is in BETA, it only supports 11 food categories. I am working on adding more as soon as possible. You can check/request for more food categories below.
2. I am a college student, and I don't have the resources to keep high end servers running. The app might be slow at times. Please bear with me.
3. Again, the app is in BETA. A detailed analysis of the picture(that is, name of the dish rather than the category) would be rolled out with next update!
Get the app here (Only Android) : https://goo.gl/Zh71ny
Screenshots
http://imgur.com/a/6LJ8v
The usage of the application is quite simple!
1. Start the camera within the application by tapping on the FAB (Eye Button).
2. Click a picture of your food
3. Wait for us to do our job!
SeeFood can currently recognise from 11 food categories. Support for recognising particular dishes will be added with the next update, which is scheduled in a day or two.​
More information about food categories can be found here : https://github.com/C-Aniruddh/seeFood/blob/master/FOOD.md
So use it, rate it, review it, and most importantly, SHARE it!​

Great work Aniruddh!

Thug Sir! Great Work.

Please don't take this as knocking your work but, what purpose does this really serve? I just can't think of what one would use this for to categorize food when taking a picture since you probably know what it is you're eating. I must be missing something, and again not degrading your work just trying to understand what use this would have.

I understand! I am constantly working on implementing recognition of dishes! Currently I have support for 112 dishes, and with just 112 dishes, the inaccuracy would be huge. So i decided to delay it until I have enough amount of dishes! You can request for support of dishes from the app. Once the dishes are implemented, I can add average calorie amount, recipes, etc. But for that, I need help from you all! This is more of a representation of the potential of the app! Give it some time, and it'll grow
I hope to see you using the app with dishes support soon!
I hope you understand!
Thanks for trying out SeeFood!

What would be really interesting is to see how this app fares up against the upcoming google lens. In their promotional video, they showcased a feature where it could analyse flowers, so one can only presume that google lens might just be able to perform this task as well.

Nice work ani

I'm a big big fan of the tv show
the idea is good

Haha yes! But competing with Google in their own game would be a mistake

True, but then again, it's gonna be a while till Google lens comes and even when it does, it'll be a while for it to actually enter it's productive state. Till then, this app could potentially capture the market and maybe, just maybe, be able to take the game into it's own hands.
No harm in being optimistic

Please don't take this as knocking your work but, what purpose does this really serve? I just can't think of what one would use this for to categorize food when taking a picture since you probably know what it is you're eating. I must be missing something, and again not degrading your work just trying to understand what use this would have.
