Description

Ever wonder which direction your favorite place is from wherever you are? This app does just that. Note: This app is exclusively made for devices with built-in compass. In addition, the location information has to be able to be received by Wi-Fi or GPS, etc. Note: AR mode is for devices with built-in camera. Globe mode (no camera image) is for other devices. -In default setting, 18 cities are selected, of which 10 cities are displayed. In compass mode, direction and distance following the great circle of the earth is shown. -In AR mode or globe mode, direct direction and distance piercing the earth is shown, and current position of the sun and the moon is shown, overlapping with camera image in AR mode for devices with built-in camera. -You can easily add or move places in the "Select Places" screen. Red pins are places displayed in compass screen and AR screen, and purple pins are places not displayed in the two screens. -Drag the pins to exact places you like. In the "Edit Place" screen, you can change/delete names and display/hide places. -Select your distance unit, km or miles. For compass screen, you can select from two color variations, white and black. For AR screen or globe screen, you can select showing the sun and the moon, and grid type. The globe is assumed to be a sphere with the radius of 6,371,007.1810m (mean radius of GRS80 ellipsoid). The precision of direction and distance is dependent on precision of location service and electronic compass installed in device, and it may vary under certain conditions. If there are places with the same name and same position, only one of them will be saved.

Nette Idee, noch ausbaufähig

Eifonversteher · 15 years ago

Man sollte noch aus Google verschiedene Places auswählen können. So muss man alles manuell hinzufügen. Aber tolle Idea mit Potenzial.

Verblüffend

iSilvian · 15 years ago

Das Ding macht echt Laune. Wirklich faszinierend. Allerdings ist es halt nur eine kurzweilige Spielerei. Für umme ist es definitiv zu empfehlen!

Sehr schön

Heringsmoewe · 13 years ago · v2.6

Sehr anschaulich, auch die verschiedenen Gradnetz-Alternativen (terrestrisch/astronomisch), stabile Performance

Incredibly good geekness

intrrnet · 15 years ago · v2.2

Very cool app. I never knew that Singapore was only 11766 km away and just to the left of my foot. Nice touches with the map being reversed when seen through the Earth. Adding a point requires you to center the map point on the screen, but its pretty easy. My 3gs phone handles it well. Highly recommended!

なんだか楽しい

ローン人間 · 15 years ago

実用性は無さそうですが、ARで世界を見渡せたり楽しい。地面をARでみると日本の反対側の大陸(南アメリカ？)が出て来て、地球は丸いのだなーって実感出来た。

デザイン良し

kazuxyzz · 15 years ago

デザイン良くて動作も問題ないけどイマイチ使い道がハッキリしない。単位をm単位せめて10m単位で表示してくれれば、どちらの駅が近いかなど使い道もハッキリしてくるかと…。アップデート期待します。

早期に対応して頂いて感謝‼ 登録した場所が一覧で確認出来るようになって一段と便利になりました。ありがとうございます。もう手放せません‼ 今でも十分便利なんですけど～こんなこと出来るようになりますか？ ①住所入力からの場所登録(ピン打ち) ②二ヶ所住所入力からの距離測定 ③現在いる場所からの距離表示だけでなく、登録した場所からの距離測定／表示 ④ピン打ちする際に、地図上にピンが落ちてくる所を表示失礼なこと書いてしまいましたが、ご検討宜しくお願いしします。 2011/03/04 仕事で訪問業務をしております。直線距離での料金の違いがあり、計算する際に大変便利に使わせて頂いております。ありがとうございます。でも最近困ってきて… 登録した場所が同じ方角に最近偏ってきて、登録した場所名と距離がコンパスのように表示される画面で見ずらくなってきました。どうにかなりませんか⁇ 改善、宜しくお願いしします。
