Times Square Video Billboards Hacked With iPhone 4

A video has uploaded to YouTube yesterday, showing a guy in a red jacket stands in front of a giant video billboard in Times Square. He has simply plugged in the the transmitter in iPhone headphone jack and play back any video clip. The transmitter instantly sends the video signal to the video repeater and the video repeater overrides any video screen that it’s being held next to.

According to the user who uploaded the video, BITcrash44, the whole process was relatively simple:

the way it works is pretty simple: plug in my transmitter into the iphone 4 and play back any video clip. you can play it through the ipod feature or through the camera roll. the transmitter instantly sends the video signal to the video repeater and the video repeater overrides any video screen that it’s being held next to. it doesn’t matter what shape or size the hacked screen is because the hack video will simply keep its correct dimensions and the rest of the hacked space will stay black.

The guy is working on this hack and has promised that he is going to post a video soon showing how he made this prototype.
