COVR Photo turns your iPhone into a candid machine

Smartphone cases come in all shapes and sizes. Some gives extra protection against elements like water or dusts, while some gives extra battery in case you’re in for a long haul. But this particular case, called COVR Photo, makes it easier for users to take photos without drawing too much attention to them or their iPhone.

COVR case was invented by a veteran photojournalist named Thomas Hurst who, like any good photographers, appreciates capturing subjects in their natural state; unbothered by a camera pointing directly at them.

But even pulling out a fairly small device, like an iPhone for instance, and pointing it at someone can sometimes ruin the moment and eventually lead to a missed opportunity.

That’s exactly what Hurst was trying to address when he came up with COVR. With this case, users can hold the phone as they normally would and take pictures of their subject without them noticing it.

Thomas used a high-quality prism glass for the COVR’s lens and mounted it on the back of the case and sits just above the iPhone’s camera. All users need to do is slide the lens all the way up to take candid shots and slide it downwards to use the camera as usual.

Thomas Hurst and his team have taken their creation to Kickstarter with the hopes of raising eighty grand to take COVR to the next level. As of the time of writing, Hurst has already garnered a total of USD26,679 and he still has 29 days to go to meet the goal before the deadline.

Tech This Out: Be Iron Man, Angry Birds Friends & More

The weekend is here, so we’ve decided to compile a few things that we found interesting. Iron Man 3 is still around theaters, and a new version of Angry Birds arrived on Android. Keep reading, unwind a little and most of all — tech this out.

BATMAN VS IRONMAN

This infographic has been long out, and some of you might have already seen it. It shows the total cost of being Iron Man – which is around $1,612,717,000! The details here only considered Iron Man 2, and if you’ve watched Iron Man 3, you’ll see that Tony Stark has a lot more armors in store, reaching up to Mark 42, so expect that price to be significantly higher.

Batman also has one, and as you’d expect, it’s significantly cheaper. You can see the full infographics here & here, since it takes up so much space.

ABF

In the side of gaming, Rovio just wouldn’t quit as it releases Angry Birds Friends for Android. The game is out on Facebook and iOS too, and this one aims on connecting you with your friends, letting you compare scores & use new game elements. You need to connect to Facebook – obviously, and you can download it here for Android and here for iOS.

PLAGUE INC

If you still need new games to try and you would call yourself a strategist, try out Plague Inc. In this game, you take on the roles of different microorganisms, from bacteria to viruses. The goal is to infect every country and every person in the world, and kill them off before they find the cure for you. It costs $.99 for iOS (download here) and free for Android (download here) – although to fully enjoy all the game elements, there are in-app purchases pushed.

EYN

The idea has been out for quite some time now, but we also thought of sharing it with you since it’s brilliant. EYN stands for everything you need, and the company makes cases for the iPhone. They’ve embedded a mini wallet, a place for a couple of your cards and a mirror into your case so that you no longer need to bring so much stuff.

It’s selling for $29.99 abroad, and it’s a very cool idea to entertain. We’re hoping to see more intuitive accessories for more kinds of phones in the future, and we’re pretty sure Filipinos can push that to the limit.
