Video: Satarii Star - An iPhone dock that moves according to the user's position

Satarii Star is a new iPhone dock that has an absolutely unique functionality. The dock is specially designed so that, with the help of a small accessory, it detects the user's movements and, using a few motors at the base of the dock, turns the phone after the user. Notice in the video clip that the person in question places the terminal on a dock, starts filming, puts the accessory on his pocket and wherever he turns, the accessory follows his movements and returns with him. The dock recognizes the sensor if it is at a maximum distance of 8 meters and is able to turn up to 180 degrees from its initial position.

What you see in the pictures is just a prototype because the manufacturers are trying to raise $20.000 to start a production line for these accessories. To be honest, it's the first time I've seen such a simple and useful device for any iDevices owner. I hope that the necessary amount will be raised and the accessory will be launched on the market.

Our cool new idea is the Star Accessory, a product that makes your mobile camera follow your every move. You can video yourself doing anything without the awkwardness of asking friends or complicated setups. It is a sensor enabled motorized base that moves your mobile camera to follow you and keep you within the image frame. And it gets rid of the need for tripods in a sleekly designed, pocket-able form factor.
