Hi everyone, we’re gearing up for AWS re:Invent, which is happening at the Venetian in Las Vegas from Nov 11-14.  And we’re getting pretty excited about the sessions that are designed specifically for mobile developers.

This morning, I was talking to Peter Heinrich (@PeterDotGames) about his  Fire Phone: The Dynamic Perspective API, Under the Hood session. The talking points and the related code demo are shaping up really nicely – here’s the description:

"Fire phone's Dynamic Perspective adds a whole new dimension to UI and customer interaction, combining dedicated hardware and advanced algorithms to enable real-time head-tracking and 3D effects. This session goes behind the scenes with the Dynamic Perspective team, diving into the unique technical challenges they faced during development. Afterward, we explore the Dynamic Perspective SDK together so you leave the session knowing how to add innovative features like Peek, Tilt, 3D controls, and Parallax to your own apps."

Usually, it’s not fun to watch while people test out their code demos, but this one is pretty interactive!
