Built a fun 3D holographic image component in SwiftUI — powered entirely by the accelerometer.
Instead of using heavy 3D engines, this component fakes depth by layering images and shifting them based on device tilt. The result: a smooth, hologram-like parallax effect that feels alive in your hand.
🔹 SwiftUI for clean, reactive rendering 🔹 Core Motion accelerometer data to drive perspective 🔹 Lightweight, no external dependencies 🔹 Works great for product cards, galleries, and subtle visual delight
It’s a small experiment, but a powerful reminder: great interactions don’t always need complex architecture — just the right sensors and a bit of creativity.
If you want the snippet or a breakdown of how it works, happy to share!
