Description of ca

Probably the nerdiest camera app ever made, ca-mera uses a cellular automaton to interpret the brightness values of your camera stream. The resulting images are black/white and pixelated, and contain unique patterns created by the cellular automaton (Wolfram rule 126). This app provides a "selfie" mode, and lets you change the appearance of the pictures by controlling the automaton application direction, the resolution, the input brightness, and the input fidelity (i.e. to which extent the cellular automaton is allowed to run freely). Furthermore, features from the more advanced ca-mera+ app can be unlocked inside ca-mera by tapping the "+" button and watching our handcrafted ads.

  • Cool app! Just a few additions would make it top notch!

    Great app. If you could just add processing for existing camera roll images and possible video processing? Then it would be perfect.

    UPDATE 6/22: Yes! The dev is still updating! The new + version of the app has matured so much, bought it right away. Still hoping for processing of images & videos from the camera roll or iOS share or Files file system in the future for post processing.

    Update: App seems to be forgotten? Hope the dev gets back into making their app better.

    No, it was not forgotten, but I got around to update it only now... Check out also ca-mera+ which has a video recording functionality.
  • Whaaaaaaaaaat?

    Hands on the coolest most far out left field genius this planet needs. Totally awesome.

    I would love to utilize, under proper authority of course, the api for a personal project... either way next level 👍👍
  • Inspiring

    Very inspiring camera. I wonder what kind of images would result from using other Wolfram algorithms.

    Thank you. You'll like the version 2.0 update then... Just click on the "+" button and from time to time you'll get a random rule that you can enable.
