 Hey guys, it's David with The Verge and we're here at Hillcrest Labs booth at Mobile Focus at CTIA looking at some of what they have to offer. And Hillcrest Labs is all about motion sensing and helping you do things with motion. So we've seen their technology in LG's remotes for their TVs and the Roku remote that lets you play Angry Birds. But what they're showing now, which is pretty cool, is the same technology built into smartphones and tablets. So basically what it does is it takes the information from all your different sensors, the gyroscope and the compass and the accelerometer, and it turns it into really, really accurate data about where your device is positioned in space. So you can use it for much more accurate panning around if you're just looking through a virtual reality game. You can see much more accurately, like if I move a tiny bit left, it'll actually move a tiny bit left as opposed to wobbling all over the place and it'll remove magnetic interference. And it just makes it much more accurate so you can do a lot of cool things. They showed us a phone that when you put it down on a table, it actually knows it's on a table and then you pick it up and it knows you're picking it up. Or you can twist it to change a song and all kinds of cool stuff. So there's a ton of possibilities for it. And they're working with one major smartphone manufacturer now. They wouldn't tell us who. But some really cool potential for all the stuff you can do with this great motion technology. So that's what Hillcrest Labs is up to at CTIA.
 Hey guys, it's David with The Verge and we're here at Hillcrest Labs booth at Mobile Focus
 at CTIA looking at some of what they have to offer.
 And Hillcrest Labs is all about motion sensing and helping you do things with motion.
 So we've seen their technology in LG's remotes for their TVs and the Roku remote that lets
 you play Angry Birds.
 But what they're showing now, which is pretty cool, is the same technology built into smartphones
 and tablets.
 So basically what it does is it takes the information from all your different sensors,
 the gyroscope and the compass and the accelerometer, and it turns it into really, really accurate
 data about where your device is positioned in space.
 So you can use it for much more accurate panning around if you're just looking through a virtual
 reality game.
 You can see much more accurately, like if I move a tiny bit left, it'll actually move
 a tiny bit left as opposed to wobbling all over the place and it'll remove magnetic interference.
 And it just makes it much more accurate so you can do a lot of cool things.
 They showed us a phone that when you put it down on a table, it actually knows it's on
 a table and then you pick it up and it knows you're picking it up.
 Or you can twist it to change a song and all kinds of cool stuff.
 So there's a ton of possibilities for it.
 And they're working with one major smartphone manufacturer now.
 They wouldn't tell us who.
 But some really cool potential for all the stuff you can do with this great motion technology.
 So that's what Hillcrest Labs is up to at CTIA.
