舊iPhone最巧妙的10種用途
????鑒于新款iPhone 6在上市后的最初幾天內(nèi),就被訂購了大約1,000萬部,許許多多的舊iPhone注定要被扔進(jìn)垃圾堆。當(dāng)然,你可以出售、捐贈(zèng)或回收你的舊iPhone,但還可以有更好的處置辦法。 ????一個(gè)富有創(chuàng)意的例子發(fā)生在美國(guó)的密蘇里科技大學(xué)(Missouri University of Science and Technology),這里有一堂生物課正在把舊iPhone改裝成顯微鏡來使用。利用價(jià)值不到10美元的零部件,便可將這些舊手機(jī)安裝在一片透鏡上,把觀察對(duì)象放大到原始大小的175倍。 ????網(wǎng)站GottaBeMobile.com的編輯喬什?史密斯說,即便是屏幕破裂的舊手機(jī)也可以被賦予新的用途:“事實(shí)上,唯一限制你的只有自己的想象力?!?/p> ????以下是舊iPhones的10種巧妙又廉價(jià)的用途。 ????時(shí)鐘 ????把舊手機(jī)安設(shè)在一個(gè)接口塢或支架上,并且使用一款時(shí)鐘應(yīng)用程序。借助于《標(biāo)準(zhǔn)時(shí)間》(Standard Time)這款應(yīng)用程序(3.99美元),你就會(huì)擁有一款與眾不同的時(shí)鐘。使用這款應(yīng)用程序后,你的時(shí)鐘就會(huì)變成一部不間斷的延時(shí)視頻,畫面顯示建筑工人不斷地把幾段木材擺成表示實(shí)際時(shí)間的形狀。加州奧克蘭的一位營(yíng)銷主管、現(xiàn)年47歲的肖恩?羅伯茨說:“這很有吸引力。” ????你還可以靈活設(shè)置鬧鐘,并且在你睡覺時(shí)讓手機(jī)播放舒緩的白噪音。此外,如果把它放在離床足夠近的地方,它還可以被用作睡眠追蹤器,當(dāng)然這要利用像SleepBot(免費(fèi))這樣的一款應(yīng)用程序。 ????在汽車內(nèi)播放音樂 ????帶上你的音樂庫一起上路吧。部分汽車配備了用于iPhone的對(duì)接口,而且還有儀表屏,所以你可以以免提方式瀏覽音樂選擇?;蛘撸阋部梢杂闷?yán)锏狞c(diǎn)煙器來給手機(jī)提供電力。 ????遙控器 ????電視機(jī)、揚(yáng)聲器及其他設(shè)備現(xiàn)在都有相應(yīng)的應(yīng)用程序,讓用戶能夠把iPhone變成時(shí)尚遙控器。加州納帕的卡姆?萊曼現(xiàn)年42歲,他在收到iPhone 5之后,便把自己的iPhone 4改成遙控器,來控制他的家用音響系統(tǒng)。萊曼可以在家里的各個(gè)角落控制音響系統(tǒng)的音頻水平,并且使用不同的音樂服務(wù)。 ????監(jiān)控系統(tǒng) ????應(yīng)用程序可以把一部可接入WiFi的舊iPhone變成一個(gè)監(jiān)控?cái)z像頭兼動(dòng)作檢測(cè)器。作為一款免費(fèi)應(yīng)用程序,Presence提供你想要監(jiān)視地區(qū)的實(shí)時(shí)監(jiān)控視頻。此外,你還可以把它設(shè)置成檢測(cè)到動(dòng)作的同時(shí)開始錄制視頻剪輯。 ????只要購置一款價(jià)格大約為100美元的機(jī)械觀測(cè)支架,你就可以讓這個(gè)監(jiān)控?cái)z像頭轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)360度,而不需要一直保持固定視域。 |
????With about 10 million new iPhone 6s ordered in the initial days on the market, a whole lot of old iPhones are destined for the scrap heap. Sure, you could sell, donate or recycle your old Apple iPhone, but you probably will not. And there are better things to do with it. ????One creative example: At the Missouri University of Science and Technology, a biology class is making old iPhones into microscopes. Using less than $10 worth of supplies, the old phones are mounted onto a lens and can magnify an object to 175 times its size. ????Even an old phone with a cracked screen can be repurposed, says Josh Smith, editor of GottaBeMobile.com. “You’re only really limited by your imagination,” Smith says. ????Here are 10 smart – and cheap – uses for old iPhones. ????Clock ????Set your old phone on a dock or a stand and use a clock app. With Standard Time ($3.99), you will have a timepiece unlike any other. With this app, your clock is a non-stop time lapse video of construction workers switching out pieces of lumber to shape the actual time. “It’s mesmerizing,” says Shawn Roberts, 47, an Oakland, California, marketing executive. ????You can also set up flexible alarms and get the phone to play soothing white noise as you go to sleep. Set it close enough to the bed, and it can be a sleep tracker, too, with an app like SleepBot (free). ????Music for your car ????Take your music library on the road. Some cars come equipped with docking ports for iPhones and have dashboard screens so you can navigate your musical options hands-free. Or you can just use the cigarette lighter for power. ????Remote Control ????Televisions, speakers and other devices now have apps that allow users to make their iPhones into sleek remotes. Carm Lyman, 42, of Napa, California, converted his iPhone 4 into a remote for his household sound system after his iPhone 5 arrived. Lyman can control the audio levels and activate speakers in various parts of his home as well as access different music services. ????Surveillance System ????Apps can convert an old iPhone that has access to WiFi into a surveillance camera and motion detector. Presence, which is a free app, provides a live stream from the area you want to monitor. You can set it up to record video clips when it detects motion, too. ????If you buy a robotic viewing stand for about $100, you can move the camera 360 degrees rather than stick with a stationary view. |
