Photo Tilt

HTML5 clone of the photo tilt feature/gesture/ux found in Facebook’s Paper app.

Basic Usage

PhotoTilt (image url, container node)

var photoTilt = new PhotoTilt({
	url: 'photo.jpg',
	lowResUrl: 'lowRes.jpg', //optional it will load lowRes 1st if available
	maxTilt: 18, //optional, defaults to 20
	container: document.body  //optional, defaults to body
	reverseTilt: false //optional, defaults to false
});

Note: The speed of the tilt can be tweaked by updating the transform transtion speed in the CSS file.

You can find a working example here (make sure you test this on a device with a triaxial/accelerometer like a phone/tablet).
