If there is something that characterizes Apple, it is its accessibility for people with physical problems, whether hearing, sight, or even diseases like Parkinson’s, something that, although it may go unnoticed for many, not so much for those who suffer from it.
Apple would have uploaded a video on its Instagram account about a real case of a person who has this problem and since using the iPhone action mode He has been able to start enjoying recording videos, since they look the same as if a person without the disease did it.
Record a video with Parkinson’s thanks to Apple
Until now, a person with Parkinson’s could record videos, however, the stabilizationdespite improving over the years, was not so good that the movement was not noticeable. Apple wanted to solve this, and although it will depend on the degree of it, now anyone can make videos without this being appreciated.
Rodrigo has been living with hand tremors due to Parkinson’s disease for 12 years. With Action mode video stabilization, you can capture your hiking trips with a handheld camera.
When using this type of recording, we lose global vision (as if we had some zoom), since it will use the edges as a tool to cut the external pieces and give a sensation of fixed recording, even if there is really a sudden movement.
Although this function was designed for those who record action videos or amateur filmmakers, it could also be very useful medically or personally. For example, as we have seen, for people with Parkinson’s, which would help to record videos without the tremors affecting the quality, something that, although it is not designed only for them, does help.
Solo mode is available on iPhone 14 or higherso if you have an older version, unfortunately you will not be able to use it, however, if you are thinking of getting one, since you suffer from Parkinson’s, you already know which one to choose, any of the 3 latest models currently.
Possibly with other phones from other brands, you can get something similar, or even better, who knows, however, it is Apple that always shows these types of functions, because even though it is not economically profitable to make phones designed for a very small audience , always try help people with illnesses. I myself have a hearing problem, where I hear much less from one ear than the other. Thanks to its function to stabilize this, I can play music at the same volume on both sides, or at least for me, even though one of them actually sounds louder.
And you, do you use any similar function with your iPhone, or do you not need it? The truth is that even controlling the phone with your eyes is very peculiar, even if you don’t need it. Soon we will see mobile phones capable of doing anything, and we like it, because even if we don’t need it now, we never know if we will need it at some point, and we will be grateful.
