Zekitez Apps

While making Satellite Director I discovered that the sensors arenot as accurate as one might expect.This app measures the roll and pitch errors with respect to thescreen and camera in the horizontal and vertical plane. But is thecamera wrong or the roll and pitch (sensor orientation) or thescreen or the phones casing ? It probably adds all up to ...

Before buying this app: have you tried thefree version ?If you cannot install the free version your phone does not have acompass, which is required for the director or pointing function inthis app. Check "Satellite Locator" which uses GPS locations tofind a satellite.This app is simular to the free Satellite Director buthasadditional features, some may require the use of internet:- enter street and city to get your location coordinates- your location coordinates via network and/or GPS- find the exact location with the help Google Maps- see in satellite view above your location where to point thedish- create your own satellite sat-lists with only those satellites init that you want using the build-in satellite list- reduce and sort the satellite list without restarting theapp- on-line help pages- 'simple' mode without balancing the phone- export/import the satellite lists to SD card (backup)- overrule the build-in satellite list with your own list- vibrate- up to 6 satellites simultaniously displayed- display for your location and all satellites the values for:azimuth, elevation and skew- the current location via the network- update the satellite list from a website (sats.csv, Enigmasatellites.xml, SatelliteCalculation) or a local file.- instead of finding a satellite find an antenna by gps location oraddress.Warning: metal covers/cases or covers/cases with metal/magneticclosure will influence/disrupt the compass of your phone or tablet.Do not use these covers !!Finding a TV satellite, in azimuth, can be pretty difficult. Beforeyou can find it with a compass you have to do somecalculations using GPS location, magnetic variation, compassazimuth and satellite azimuth.Satellite Director replaces all of that.Just enable the GPS in your phone or enter your GPS location or usethe map to find your location,select the desired TV satellite and point your phone to the sky totarget (find) the TV satellite.Balance your phone. You have found the satellite when the whiteball is in the white circleand the cyan ball is in the cyan circle. Align the offset arm, inazimuth, of the satellite dish to the cyan arrow onthe phones display and the satellite dish is aligned in azimuthwith the satellite.Selectable audio tone, camera preview, continuous mode (no pause),color pickers or a user defined satellite position may make iteasier for you to find the desired TV satellite.There are 2 satellite lists: an extended list with 400+ satellitesand a compact list with 220+ satellites or use your own list(mailed to the phone or downloaded, see Youtube how easy it is touse.).New phones with Android 4: remember that the "Settings" screen hasoptions to correct the compass readings, if needed.
