I've recently developed an application that view a panorama 360 image, using Panoramagl library for iPhone, and i wanna enhance it and make more features like hotspot.
I've tried to look at a javascript code that implement this feature, but it's useless.
I don't know from where to start implementing this feature and i don't understand the concept of the hotspot. can anyone put me on the right way to start implementing this feature ?
thx in advance.
I've ended up using a library called KRPano using it in UIWebView, it has a good support and has a lot of features.
PanoramaGL for iOS was updated recently to 0.1 r3 version. This new version support Spherical images 2048x1024 pixeles. And hotspots feature was added.

Can we create an augmented reality desktop application using unity which can convert all images from a school textbook into 3D objects. ? If yes, then what will be the procedure and what other tools do we need. ? It is our final year project and we really need help in this.
If watermark will not be an issue than you can use Vuforia library.
https://developer.vuforia.com/
It has nice unity integration and you can archive what you are up to in almost no time :). But it is not supporting desktop build out of the box, but below you have alternative libraries that do:

I can't say how good they are because I have never used them.
You can try artoolkit, stable and simple. Easyar is good but a little young.
I recommend using ARToolKit. You can target OSX, Windows and Linux if you need to. Also using the Unity plugin it should be easy for you to get started.
And if you decide to go on mobile later it also has support for iOS and Android.

Edit:
They also have an active forum where you can ask questions and find help if you have the need:

I'm must build the same application for android and iphone.
I tryed rhodes, that is great, but some native ui features are missing...
I would like to know, is there a strategy, sdk, framework, or something for building native applications for android and iphone that somehow reduce the rework?
Or any suggestion of other framework, like rhodes...
Thanks
Phone Gap is the place for you. You should have a look at this http://www.phonegap.com/about
Appcelerator Titanium
http://www.appcelerator.com/products/titanium-mobile-application-development/
Documentation, Documentation, Documentation!
Have a well written PDR and stick to it.
there is another approach which is to use a tool that generates both simultaneously like: phonegap or corona SDK.
Design for some level of resolution independence. Try to code as much as you appropriately can in HTML rather than native controls. And wrap common API calls so you have 1 method to change rather than 100 different calls all over the place.
You could consider using monotouch and monodroid.

I am searching for face detection technique in iPhone. In my app I want to detect moving motion of face using camera. So, if you have any idea about that then please guide me. I am trying with accelerometer but I could not get any idea. So, if you have any idea about that then please guide me.
Try open CV library for reference here's a link try it out
I agree that you should use OpenCV for this project, but getting it to work in XCode is tricky.
EDIT: The original link I posted is down (presumably because the author has written a book), but the OpenCV project now seems to have an iOS package here:
http://opencv.org/downloads.html
It's a little late, but you could use this for continues face detection:
https://github.com/evermeer/EVFaceTracker
There is a ready-made library dubbed Phonect that does this.
It's a motion detection engine for the iPhone -

I was wondering if anyone knew how to control the iPhone's volume using PhoneGap/Titanium/Corona? If not I would very much appreciate a tutorial on how to develop my own plugin that would be able to interface with the iPhone frameworks and develop something along the lines of MPVolumeView.
Thanks!
Dredging up an old question, but there is a plugin available for this now if anyone stumbles upon this question looking for a solution:
https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/iPhone/VolumeSlider
It basically does exactly what #Aaron Saunders suggested (loads an MPVolumeView via a plugin).
We're evaluating Sencha Touch for mobile development. Has anyone used this yet (I realize that it's still in beta), and if so, what are its strengths / weaknesses? How does it compare to alternatives?
It certainly sounds compelling.
Thanks!
I'm playing with Sencha Touch, I have a project up at GitHub. If you're comfortable with ExtJS it will be familiar. The examples are impressive (requires WebKit browser). You might be interested in this question as well.
I've used it only briefly. It looks very good and has a nice array of tools to make pseudo-native apps. One of the larger concerns is the licensing (the inclusion of ExtJS and the requirement to purchase a license to use the software). Now ExtJS and Sencha have merged - so I am unsure of what the impact will be. Also, as for alternatives, Sencha has merged in JQTouch (a primary alternative). See this post for more information
I think currently it is only optimized for safari-browser. I tried in on Android Phone (HTC Magic, Android 1.6) and the examples didn't work.
but it is a beta of course....
Currently ,i'm using sencha-touch in my project and pretty easy to use and understand especially with the documentation that comes along with it . As compared other mobile fameworks whose documentation is limited
