Two videos have recently been uploaded at youtube in response to one another, showing some of the iPhone’s military applications. The first video below is a genuine iPhone hack it shows use of a native iPhone App controlling an iRobot PackBot. What’s a PackBot you ask? iRobot describes them as robots for “Helping warfighters and first responders tackle dangerous missions”.

This fully featured remote control program uses streaming POV video and a direct WiFi connection to the PackBot. Authors of the software Rodrigo Guiterrez and Jeff Craighead of South Florida University claim that next up they plan to utilize the phone’s accelerometers and a full screen video display to deliver a “you are there” experience for bot-steering.

The second video isn’t so much an iPhone hack because it uses a web app and could be achieved using most mobile browsing devices these days. But they did choose the iPhone to program their remote controlled UAV fly over reconnaissance mission.
