Provides both a FLAT VIEW COMPASS and an AUGMENTED REALITY CAMERA 3-D VIEW showing the solar path, its hour intervals, its winter and summer solstice paths, rise and set times and more.

Ideal for

* Real Estate Buyers - for finding the sun exposure of properties you are considering

* Gardeners - for finding optimal planting locations for current and seasonal solar exposure

* Photographers - for planning optimal light conditions

* Architects - for getting a feel for the spatial variability of the solar angle throughout the year

* All Sun Lovers! To find the sun, even when it is hidden by clouds or walls

Main Features

* Uses GPS and magnetometer to find the correct solar position and path for your current location

* Flat compass view showing current solar position, diurnal solar angle and elevation (separated into day & night segments), shadow length ratio, atmospheric path thickness

* 3D augmented reality camera overlay view showing the sun's current position, its path with hour points marked

* Camera view also has an optional pointer to guide you towards the current location of the sun

* Ability to choose any date and view solar path for that day

* Additional details including rise, set and culmination times, maximum elevation

* User option to include summer and winter solstice paths on both flat compass view and camera view

Notes

* The compass accuracy depends on having an undistorted magnetic field around your device. If you use it close to metallic objects or electrical equipment, directional accuracy may be impaired.

* The compass accuracy is also reduced when the device is aligned with the local magnetic field vector, so there may be portions of the 3-D view where results are less reliable.
