About this app

http://SunTrajectory.net enables you to predict the sun path and its shadow, simply looking through your phone.
Find sunrise and sunset times, not only on the horizon, but also depending on a building or a mountain.
The summer and winter solstices show the extreme positions of the sun over a year.
You can also predict the shadow, the sunlight in and out of a house, and even where the sun will be... if reflected in water!

Caution: some phones don't handle correctly gyroscopic sensors. Should you notice any innaccurate display, try deactivating gyros into application menu/settings.

http://SunTrajectory.net allows you to display the future trajectories of the sun in augmented reality:

* Look through your phone and see the path of the sun.

* Plan the sunrise and sunset times, not only on the horizon, but also on a building or a relief.

* Travel in time and see what course the sun will follow in the months to come.

* The summer and winter solstices are displayed, showing the extreme positions of the sun over a year.

* Take and save photos.

* Check afterwards the different trajectories of the sun for a whole year.


Moon Path is included:

* http://MoonTrajectory.net is fully included into http://SunTrajectory.net!

* No need to have both apps installed on your phone.

* You can browse the trajectories of the sun, its shadow and also of the moon on the same photos!

* Find out if the moon will be full or what phase it will be in.

* For more details, please visit the website of
http://MoonTrajectory.net.


Architecture:

* Visualize the sunlight in and out of a house you wish to buy for every month of the year.

* Predict the consequences of a shadow.

* Think about the orientation of a terrace, imagine creating a new window.

* Export your photos, including the drawing of the sun path, to your computer and integrate those pictures into a report (for example: photovoltaics).


Photography:

* Plan your pictures according to the light effect you wish to create.

* Plan when a subject (like a statue for instance) will be lit from the angle you have chosen.

* Plan when that same subject will be aligned with the moon.

* Use the calendar of the moon phases.

* Plan when the sun will light a scene (and not be hidden by a mountain or a building).

* Imagine the outline of shadows on the scene at a later date.

* Use the agenda to plan your future pictures.

* This way, you will know when to return to the site to take your picture to the maximum effect.

* Use Google Maps to pinpoint its exact location.

Whatever happened to the floppy disk icon? Had not used the app in a few months but noticed that the floppy disk icon is missing so zi cannot save or load images. Intentional? Or compatibility issue with recent versions of Pie?

Hi. Could you please try version 2.9m? Thanks, Sylvain.

What's new

2.9: Supporting Android 6.0.

2.7: You can now predict where the sun will be... if reflected in water!

2.6: If your phone is equipped with gyroscopic sensors, the application uses them in order to further improve the image stabilization.

2.4: Image stabilization has been improved, so using the app will be more comfortable. Feel free to post comments on the Facebook page of the application!
