Glasses free 3D on iPad

With a front facing camera now on iPad 2, apps can now track a users face in real time. This allows for some really interesting tech to be shown off. Like, being able to ‘mock’ 3D as you move your head. The possibilities for this are great. Imagine being able to find hidden items in games simply by peeking. Or being able to pop out of cover in a FPS simply by peering over the top. Can’t wait to see how this is implemented in games.
