> how will this be better than screensharing and teleconferencing?

We have a remote worker. During meetings, the iPad that he's on just sits on a desk, pointing at only some of us. It would be nice if he could turn around and face the person he's addressing. It's a small thing, but important.



The troll solution would be to buy an old turntable and put his iPad on that. No more manual turning!

Seriously, an app that can remotely command a turntable/stand would be neat.

TouchOSC would be able to do it, provided the right proxy and hardware at the other end. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/touchosc/id288120394?mt=8


Not a bad idea, I have a USB missile launcher but I've been having a hell of a time talking to it via USB. :/
