I¹m currently running an iPhone programming course for students in my department. After each weeks class I¹m posting summary videos to YouTube, so I thought that others might be interested in following along. No programming experience is required, however you do need access to an Apple Mac running at least OSX Snow Leopard. This is because iOS apps are written in Xcode which is only available for the Mac (sorry Windows users!). More info on registering and downloading Xcode can be found below. It¹s free to register as a developer and free to download Xcode, but you need to pay (USD$99/year) in order to install your apps on a device (the free option allows you to run your apps in a simulator on the computer).
https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action The first three weeks of the course have been completed and I¹ve been focusing on the basics of programming first, but in later weeks I¹ll go through how to access data from the GPS and the tri-axial accelerometer which are built in to the iPhone. These can be used to track movement, which of course is quite important in our field. http://www.youtube.com/user/iOSProgramming4Sport Any questions just drop me a line (g....@hull.ac.uk).
