Satellite map AR SatFinder 3D vs DishPointer (Satellite Finder)

SatFinder 3D: Revolutionizing Satellite Dish Alignment SatFinder 3D is a state-of-the-art tool designed to aid installers in precisely aligning satellite dishes, ensuring optimal signal reception. Description Gone are the days of laborious manual satellite direction searches. With SatFinder 3D, simply select your desired satellite from a comprehensive list, then activate the "AR" feature and choose your offset or prime dish type. The app will then generate a vivid 3D model of a satellite dish accurately aligned with the selected satellite. By leveraging your device's camera, you can visualize the 3D dish model's orientation on your house wall, streamlining the installation process and aiding in optimal setup. Moreover, the app provides real-time visibility of all available satellites in your district. By accessing the "AR" feature in the satellites list window and pointing your device towards the sky, you can effortlessly observe the available satellites for your location. Additionally, this program serves as a comprehensive database of transponders (frequencies) for all TV/RADIO satellites worldwide, facilitating easy access to satellite parameters. Features The SatFinder 3D app boasts a wide array of cutting-edge features, including: - 3D Satellite Dish Model Direction Augmented Reality Feature:** Visualize the dish's direction using a 3D model through augmented reality. - Real-time Satellite Viewing:** Access real-time visuals of satellites in the sky through augmented reality. - 3D LNB Tilt Indicator:** Ensure precise adjustment with the 3D LNB tilt indicator. - WiFi Video Monitoring:** Facilitates precise dish adjustment through WiFi video monitoring. - Smart Satellite Search:** Enjoy effortless satellite search with sound indication. - Comprehensive Sorting Options:** Sort by satellite, channel name, radio name, provider name, frequency, and Ku & C-bands. - Detailed Channel Information:** Display of channel name, radio station, provider with official site link, and encoding details. - Transmission Details:** Presenting frequency, polarization, FEC, and Symbol Rate information. - Satellite Position Details:** Azimuth, Elevation, and LNB Skew angles for the desired satellite. - Manual Compass Support:** For devices without magnetic compass support, a manual compass is available. - Regular Database Updates:** Benefit from weekly updates to the extensive database. - Vast Database:** Access an extensive database comprising over 12,800 video channels, 3900 radio stations, and 180 Internet service providers. Important Notice SatFinder 3D utilizes your phone's magnetometer sensor to determine your azimuth. As the accuracy of the satellite position calculation relies on your device's sensors, it's crucial to calibrate your device by following the instructions provided for your specific phone model. If you encounter issues with your device's compass, the app offers a "Manual Compass On" feature, which allows you to manually align your device's 3D world direction with the actual south direction. With these advanced features and unparalleled convenience, SatFinder 3D is revolutionizing the satellite dish alignment experience, empowering installers to achieve optimal results with ease and precision.

DishPointer allows you to align your satellite dish with great precision in a minimum of time thanks to augmented reality. Adjusting a dish has always been complicated. but thanks to DishPointer this task becomes child's play. By following the 9 steps of the application, you will successfully install your dish in few minutes. No more need for a gyroscope to use augmented reality. We have combined the accelerometer and magnetometer data to compensate for the possible absence of the gyroscope. This allows the majority of smartphones to benefit from augmented reality. In DishPointer we have also integrated a module to calculate the magnetic declination and compensate the error between magnetic north and geographic north because we have noticed that the majority of smartphones do not integrate this declination. This help to display the right direction DishPointer is an application that lets you orient your dish or antenna to any satellite. Thanks to the sensors of your smartphone (Compass, accelerometer) this application displays the target satellite in space in order to better choose the location of your dish or antenna and to ensure the absence of any obstacle (wall, tree…). DishPointer also uses GPS to display your location on a map and then display the direction of the target satellite from your location. The compass accompanied by a beep allows you to orient your antenna or satellite dish by following the acceleration of the beeps and the arrow of the compass. The accelerometer is used to check that the support of your antenna or dish is vertical. The steps for adjusting the antenna or the dish: 1- choose your language 2- retrieving your GPS position automatically using GPS or manually by entering your latitude and longitude. 3- choose your target satellite to calculate the orientation parameters of the antenna or the satellite dish. 4- check that the support of your antenna or dish is vertical. 5- calculate the polarization and adjust the rotation of the LNB (the head of your antenna or satellite dish) 6- adjust the elevation 7- display of a line which indicates the orientation of the target satellite from your position on a Google Maps. 8- using the compass of your smartphone accompanied by a beep to help you find the right direction of the satellite (available in Pro version). 9- display the satellite in augmented reality thanks to your camera and make sure that there is no obstacle. This is used to validate the location of your antenna or dish (available in the Pro version). 10- refine the settings. For the app to work properly, DishPointer will need the compass and the accelerometer from your smartphone. Tips: - if your smartphone does not have a GPS, you can manually enter your latitude and longitude (you can get them on Google Maps). - the compass is only essential for the Pro version. - do not hesitate to recalibrate the compass and avoid approaching it too close to the arm of the parabola because it is sensitive to metallic elements. Try to place your smartphone where there is the least magnetic interference. The free version of DishPointer is enough for you to install your dish. It will calculate the orientation parameters and display the precise direction of the satellite on a Maps map. The Pro version offers you the use of augmented reality to see the exact position of satellites in space. It also provides you with an assistant based on the phone compass to display the exact direction of the target satellite. Contact: infosoftycontactfree@gmail.com
