Feeling a bit envious about the LG G5 Friends camera module? A new Kickstarter project by Miggo hopes to recreate that experience with its Pictar accessory. The $90 USD accessory attaches to the back of your iPhone to give you physical buttons and a better hold on your phone when you shoot. Instead of Bluetooth, it connects to your phone using ultrasonic waves. It’ll emit an ultrasonic sound every time you press one of the buttons and this will be picked up by the iPhone’s mic. You’ll need to be using Pictar’s app to get this to work though. The good thing about using ultrasonic noise is it won’t drain your iPhone’s battery life and the case’s own juice at a faster rate. But we’re not sure how it’ll work in noisy environments. If you plan on getting one, Miggo plans to ship the Pictar by the end of the year.
