I usually don't rant much about Nokia phones here at USEB, but for long there has been a rather interesting application for these called LightSabre, which turned phones with a built-in accelerometer into a deadly light saber with both sound and visual effects.

Now, the fantastic Steve Oldmeadow has created an application for Sony Ericsson phones with a built-in accelerometer running the A200 platform - it's called Saber ME, and works brilliantly! Check his video demo of the application below.



The application will run on C902, K850, W760, W910 & W980 (and any future SE phone with an accelerometer and running A200 software platform). And best of all - it's freeware! I am VERY interested in seeing what applications will come from Steve in the future smile.gif
Download it here!

@Mizzle

Does K850 have flash lite?

An odd question to ask but I'm just interested as SE have only mostly put FL on their walkman phones.

Thanks

It does have Flash Lite 2.0 (so does C902, W760, W910 & W980), yes, but that's not needed. I think I was a bit too quick with posting this, so I made the mistake that Flash Lite 2.0 is required, which isn't the case.

All you'll need is a phone running the A200 software platform and also a built-in accelerometer.

I tried it too. It's not working. I have w580i.

Can you make it for w580i?
I was wondering are there any accelerator application?

As I wrote in the post, it will not work on W580. Please read the post before asking such questions / posting such comments.

Anyhow, explanation follows... The A100 software platform on W580 means that W580 has JP-7. To run this application (and others that make use of the built-in accelerometer) the phone will need the Mobile Sensor API (JSR 256), which is only available in A200 phones. And before anyone asks - no, you can not modify your phone and turn it into an A200-based one or get the JSR 256 support either lol.gif
