>> INTRODUCING FUFFR

multi-touch, multi-surface user input device for mobile devices.

At the stkhlm.js developer meet-up yesterday (Monday, 26 May) fuffr presented their new input device that is a cover for existing iOS devices that allows for interaction with the device without obscuring or messing up the display of the device with your grubby mits.

While currently in the final stages of development the device opens up a number of interesting possibilities for user interaction. It is simply a case with numerous infrared sensors that detect movement and transmit information using BlueTooth low-energy (BLE). The developer has full flexibility as to which regions can be active for input to optimize power efficiency and maximize usage.

fuffr is also offering one-thousand (1000) developers the opportunity to get their hands on a developer kit to get the ball rolling with applications that utilize the technology prior to launch - simply request a personal invite at their developer page.

fuffr code (Objective C, JavaScript) reposities are available on GitHub for integration now:
