Beschreibung

PocketMoon is an Augmented Reality App. It shows the actual position of the moon and its orbit as an overlay to the camera image of your iPhone. This is done in realtime for your current environment (position, orientation, time and date). This does not require any manual input.

However it is possible to enter any arbitrary date to show moon orbits in the past and in the future. Also the position on earth can be set. This is done comfortably based on an integrated database containing all cities on earth with more than 15,000 inhabitants.

PocketMoon is applicable in many ways.

Photographers and filmmakers are enabled to prearrange impressive pictures and shoots.

Amateur astronomers can set up their telescopes in optimal positions.

In general there is benefit for all people that want to make use of the high brightness of the moon and also for people that want to avoid it.

PocketMoon shows the moon orbit also indoor. It shows immediately if the moon will pass inside or outside of a window aperture. Moon enthusiasts as well as moon sensitive humans will have benefit.

Features:
• Lunar orbit calculations for any time and any location
• Augmented Reality Visualisation. Overlay as graph and on request also numerically for high precision
• Applicable also in buildings, e.g. in window surrounding areas
• Many additional information (moon azimuth, elevation angle, declination, right ascension, ecliptic longitude, ecliptic latitude, distance to earth, moon phase, moon age, moon sign and much more)

Applications:
• Proffessional set planning for DoPs (director of photography)
• Optimal Teleskope setup
• Species-appropriate placement of animal cages, aquariums, ...
• Moon light usage for ambitious sports, mountaineering and much more
• Aid for moon sensitive humans, especially in foreign places
