WeatherSats AR vs Geometry Visualization

Learn about the satellites that monitor extreme weather and climate change in this immersive AR app. We'll challenge you to complete a series of missions, which will start with an interactive journey into space where you’ll see the satellites orbiting Earth and view all of their instruments up close. You’ll learn how the satellite instruments work, how they transmit data from space to a system of ground stations on Earth and end up in your weather forecast. You’ll learn about the electromagnetic spectrum and how the satellites see. And you’ll explore the powerful weather events and dazzling weather phenomena that they observe across our planet.

Understand 3D Orientation. See It in Real Time. This app is a hands-on visualization tool designed for developers working with SceneKit. It helps you clearly understand how pitch, yaw, and roll interact — and how material order affects rendering on standard 3D geometries. Whether you're learning 3D graphics, debugging orientation issues, or experimenting with material stacks, this app provides a clean, interactive environment for exploration. Explore 3D Orientation • Adjust pitch, yaw, and roll independently • Observe how rotation order affects final orientation • See real-time updates as values change • Build intuition for 3D transform behavior Standard SceneKit Geometries; Visualize common primitives such as: • Box • Sphere • Cylinder • Cone • Capsule • Plane • Other standard SceneKit shapes Understand Material Application • Explore how materials are applied to geometry elements • See how material order impacts rendering • Experiment with multi-material configurations • Better understand SceneKit’s material indexing Built for Developers • Ideal for iOS and macOS developers working with SceneKit • Great companion tool for learning 3D math concepts • Useful for debugging transform and rendering behavior • Clean, distraction-free interface focused on learning If you work with SceneKit, 3D transforms, AR, or graphics programming, this app helps you see what the math is doing.
