Preface

Over the last few years the new generation of smart phones, such as Apple’s iPhone, has finally started to live up to their name and have become the primary interface device for geographically tagged data. However not only do these devices know where they are, they can tell you how they’re being held, they are sufficiently powerful to overlay data layers on the camera view, and record and interpret audio data, and they can do all this in real time. These are not just smart phones, these are computers that just happen to be able to make phone calls.

This book should provide a solid introduction to using the hardware features in the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad.

Who Should Read This Book?

This book provides an introduction to the hot topic of location-enabled sensors on the iPhone. If you are a programmer who has had some experience with the iPhone before, this book will help you push your knowledge further. If you are an experienced Mac programmer, already familiar with Objective-C as a language, this book will give you an introduction to the hardware specific parts of iPhone programming.
