What is Star Chart VR? Star Chart VR is a virtual reality app that allows users to explore the solar system and night sky in a real-time simulation. It is the VR version of the popular augmented reality astronomy app, Star Chart. Users can explore the solar system from the Sun to Pluto, gaze at the rings of Saturn, and understand the constellations of the night sky. The app is designed to provide an immersive experience for both young and old users.
1. The ultimate virtual reality experience: A VR Planetarium! Star Chart VR lets you explore the solar system and night sky in a beautiful and accurate real-time simulation.
2. *** Star Chart VR is the virtual reality version of the hugely successful augmented reality astronomy & star gazing app - Star Chart - downloaded by over 20 million people world-wide.
3. - Written from the ground up for Virtual Reality, Star Chart VR is in many ways a superior product to the original Star Chart, but please do not expect full feature parity.
4. We will continue to develop and enhance Star Chart VR over time, so at some point Star Chart VR may reach parity (where applicable), but there are no promises.
5. - Star Chart VR requires a Cardboard viewer to use (button / trigger enabled).
6. Star Chart for VR was developed on an iPhone 6 and runs beautifully on this and higher end devices.
7. Delight in exploring the solar system, from the Sun to the smallest moons of Saturn and out to the coldest, darkest, farthest reaches of Pluto.
8. What better way to learn about the night sky and astronomy than to immerse yourself as a virtual astronaut travelling through space.
9. Most high end modern phones will provide you with smooth frame-rate (a result of processing speed) and seamless head tracking (a result of sensor update speed and accuracy).
10. Understand how the constellations of our night sky are made up of stars distant to each other in both space and time.
11. Embrace the impossible distances of our solar system and the inordinate scale of our universe.
