Turn iPhone/iPod Touch into a Video Game Controller using iMO

iMO is a Gurgaon based startup that is surely pushing iPhone to it’s limit. iMO’s software converts iPhone/iPod Touch into a video game controller that works with existing PC video games, giving it Wii like capabilities.

Most of the PC games are played using keyboard/mouse – but imaging using your iPhone like a joystick to twist and turn.

iMo leverages the iPhone/iPod Touch’s built-in accelerometer and touch screen to not just mimic the standard game controllers such as the joystick but add a lot more control to take gaming action to the next level!

What’s crazy about iMO (I haven’t even used it, but the concept blows one’s mind) is that it is game agnostic and you can control the games you have on your PC.

The company’s board includes Gaurav Bhatiya of Minekey
Watch this kickass demo @ TC50 (this dude rocks!)



Update: And while I was writing this, Gaurav informed me that iMO won the ‘Best Presentation Award’ at TC50.
