Create Apps that Respond in a Whole New Way
We just announced Fire, Amazon’s all-new Android-based smartphone.
Fire is the first and only smartphone with Dynamic Perspective and Firefly.
Dynamic Perspective is an entirely new sensor system that responds to the way a customer holds, views and moves the phone.
The revolutionary Firefly button quickly recognizes things in the real world, such as movies, music, millions of products, and more.
With the Firefly SDK, developers can extend the use of the Firefly button to enable new actions their users can take based on what they identify.
Getting started is easy as Android apps already run on Fire with little to no work. Submit your apps by July 18th and if approved they will be in the Amazon Appstore when Fire ships.
