GyrOSC is a lightweight utility that sends your device's motion sensors to any OSC (Open Sound Control) capable application over Wi-Fi. Wirelessly control your OSC capable audio or video app by moving and tilting your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad. Wirelessly send: . Gyroscope {pitch, roll, yaw} . Accelerometer {x-axis, y-axis, z-axis} . Compass {magnetic heading} . GPS {latitude, longitude, altitude, course, speed, time} . Quaternion {w, x, y, z} . Rotation matrix {m1 ... m16} . Rotation rate {x-axis, y-axis, z-axis} . Gravity {x-axis, y-axis, z-axis} . Magnetic field {x-axis, y-axis, z-axis} . Altitude {m, kPa} Control any live audio or video application that supports OSC messaging. Some examples include Max/MSP, Pure Data, Processing, Plogue Bidule, Isadora, and more. Features: - Customize message tags - Save and load addresses for quick setup - Screen lock for performance - Gyroscope orientation reset button - Control buttons to send OSC messages GyrOSC will automatically detect the available sensors in your device.
