Hi All,

We recently run a few experiments with entropy generation from an
iPhone camera thermal noise. That turned out to be pretty practical
high volume entropy source. We just published research notes[1] and
prototype source code[2] of everything we hacked so far, feel free to
dig in if that strikes your interest.
