Whether you are a professional Paranormal Investigator, a hobbyist or want to set up a simple alarm system, this app works as a motion detector taking snapshots when movement is detected. By placing your device on a fixed, UNMOVING surface (using a tripod works best) you can point it at an area to monitor. GhostEye will use the camera to watch for movement and take a snapshot when it detects changes in the image. Features include: - Use the rear or front camera where available - Adjust sensitivity to prevent false motion detection - Save snapshot images at 25%, 50%, 75% or full size - Share saved images with other apps, e.g. iCloud, Email etc. TIP 1: Even a cheap tripod (e.g. from a pound shop) will provide a steady image to prevent your device being affected by motion or vibration. Don't try to use the app while holding your device as it will detect lots of movement. TIP 2: The app can be used to catch trespassers in an area by leaving your device plugged into a charger and pointing to the area to monitor. If the app does not do what you were expecting, or there is an issue with it running on your device, please contact me for help. There are no adverts in this software. If you would like to try the free version first (with limited snapshots and image size), it is listed under "GhostEye Lite".

** You will need a set of Mobile Phone VR Goggles to use this app ** Enhance your paranormal Investigations with the S:G VR Experiments. Many experiments used on Paranormal Investigations are still using old techniques and equipment, I am trying to change that now using todays technology. Combine these experiments with the Estes method and see what happens! At the moment there are 3 experiments to choose from: 1: The Ganzfeld Experiment This uses a sensory deprivation methodology to help connect you to the spirits (this is an enhancement of the Estes method). It has been around since the 1970s and used on paranormal investigations for many many years. Originally you would put half ping pong balls over your eyes with a red light shining threw them. I am bringing the Ganzfeld Experiment into the 21st Century using the latest technology. Instead of listening to white noise, why not listen to a spirit box instead? 2: Spinning Triangles This is my own enhancement of the Ganzfeld Experiment, along with the flashing red lights, I have added 3 spinning red triangles within a black circle, within the flashing red screen. When testes I stared at the centre for around 1 minute then closed my eyes, I saw a huge sort of 3D sphere appeared with some crazy stuff going on inside it. 3: Space Travel I made my own 3D VR engine to simulate space flight. As you glide forward through space you should become relaxed and more susceptive to extra sensory feelings. ** WARNING ** This app contains flashing lights, and may produce motion sickness, please use with caution, and for no longer than 20 minutes at a time. ** Disclaimer ** Use at your own risk.
