About LinkBacksI came across this Tricorder app in the market that is just awesome! It uses the sensors in the Droid (might work on other android phones?) and measures gravitational & magnetic fields, geo information, decibels, Solar information, and radio signals. It's just a fun app to play with (especially the decibels!)

12-06-2009 10:35 PMI think it measures things around you. For instance if you are at a concert and want to know how loud it is this app would tell you.
Also if you think Magneto is after you well there's an app for that. -

12-06-2009 10:49 PMAs a first post I'll add that I also think it's cool.
The Audio app shows level and a spectrographic view. Pretty too.
If you are into Ham Radio you'll like the Solar Activity panel. It has stats for # of sunspots and flares among other stuff. Also images of the sun at various wavelengths.
And it's fun to play with.

12-06-2009 10:51 PMI used to think it was cool until I saw the tricorder app on the iphone. I wish the same one would come out for the droid.

12-07-2009 03:55 PMThe iPhone app doesn't sense anything but movement. It has a bunch of pre-programmed info that simulates readings. This app actually TAKES readings using the sensors (magnetometer, accelerometer, compass, mic, camera, proximity sensor, gps, cell signal, internet) to display real time data. The iPhone one LOOKS better but this one actually DOES something.

12-07-2009 04:01 PMThis seems to be the biggest difference between these two phones, not just this particular app.... Originally Posted by PowerPlayGraphix
