We recently wrote about a startup that develops an innovative digital textbook platform, Inkling, which raised funding from Sequoia, Aydin Senkut, and other investors and scored a number of deals with publishers. Inkling's technology delivers interactive textbooks that include the ability to collaborate, add multimedia and communicate within content. The startup adds another layer to online textbooks by adding 3-D objects, video, quizzes, and even social interaction within the content. Today, Inkling's technology is making its debut on the App Store with the iPad app, "Lights, Camera, Capture." The app, which is actually incorporates content from the book written by Bob Davis and published by John Wiley & Sons, costs $9.99 in App Store. Like the book, it helps aspiring photographers learn about shooting images with minimal lighting equipment. The app includes over 100 videos, interactive diagrams to help you understand the effect of lighting and equipment settings, workshop videos, high resolution images, and the full text of the original book.
