2002: It started of as making little flash animations for sales forces's PDAs to demonstrate complex industrial and physical principles. Over the course of 5 years, big names from the world of industrial measurements have used pocketDEMO like Renishaw or Mitutoyo.2005: While in a shop looking for shoes for a new born baby, I realized that it would be cool to have a simple ruler on the screen of my Smartphone. So I created "Dimensions" for SmartPhones and started to sell a fair amount online.November 2008: Dimensions become the top selling app in the Apple iTunes Store in France, Italy, Spain, Brazil, Switzerland, Belgium, Japan and holds the top 5 spot in lots of other countries.Dimensions will remain within the top 20 in all these countries for nearly a year and get more than 1 million and a half users (most of which got the software illegally from jailbroken iPhones).January 27, 2010: Steve Jobs presents the first iPad and in his introduction video my software shows up as an icon on the screen. I will never know if Steve Jobs got to see my app and asked for it to be on this iPad. I like to think he did.2010: Passionate with photography, I invent "Flash-Dock". An accessory that let's you hold your SmartPhone on your DSLR camera. it allows you to send your DSLR quality pictures directly in 3G, geotag photos or do timelapse videos. I sold thousands of it over the years.2011: Release of Dimensions 2 which will be a failure and follow Steve Jobs' well described syndrome of the "second product failure".2012: Release of Dimensions 3 which will go into top spot again in 3 countries .... for 3 days. The app store has changed and games have taken power.
