What software is Xingye Xing

What is the name of the software for watching the starry sky? This is the Starry Night app.

Starry Night Journey integrates Western star maps, astronomical information, and event information, and is equipped with a voice guide function to tell you the story of constellations.

Through stargazing, you will discover that in ancient China and Western culture, people have different associations with the starry sky, thus creating completely different constellations or patterns. There are three operation modes for electronic star maps: "tracking mode" uses positioning function to monitor the direction of mobile devices, simulates the pointed sky area in real time, and helps you identify the position of celestial bodies and constellations; The "reality mode" uses augmented reality technology to display real-time markings or patterns of celestial bodies or constellations on the camera's starry sky screen; And 'manual mode' allows you to freely choose the simulated sky area. Click on the constellations, planets, sun, moon, or twenty-eight constellations displayed on the electronic star chart, and then you can listen to the accompanying recording to learn about the stories of constellations and celestial bodies.

Starry Night Journey also provides basic information on stargazing, allowing you to learn stargazing etiquette and help beginners identify constellations.

You can also choose the calendar to find the latest information on events and various astronomical phenomena provided by the Hong Kong Space Museum. You can also share content through third-party applications, invite friends to participate in activities, and share the joy of stargazing!

Starry Night Journey won the Excellence Award for "Smart Transportation (Smart Tourism)" at the 2019 Hong Kong Information and Communication Technology Awards.

Open the app: First, make sure you have downloaded and installed the 'Starry Night' app, and then open it.

Permission allowed: If this is your first time using reality mode, the app may request access to your camera. Please grant this permission so that the application can use your camera to display the real world.

Pointing to the sky: Aim your phone at the sky. The application will use your phone's camera to capture real-time footage and overlay virtual constellations, planets, and other celestial body information on top of it.

Mobile phone: Slowly move your phone, and the reality mode will adjust the displayed celestial body position based on the direction and angle of your phone. In this way, you can see the combination of virtual starry sky and real sky through your phone screen.

Explore and understand: When you aim your phone at a constellation or celestial body, the app may display relevant information such as name, brightness, distance, etc. Some applications also allow you to click on celestial bodies to get more detailed introductions or stories.

Adjust settings: If necessary, you can adjust the detail level of the reality mode in the settings, such as showing or hiding some celestial bodies, adjusting the brightness or size.

When using reality mode, please pay attention to the following points:

Ensure that you are in a dimly lit environment to better observe the virtual starry sky.

Keep your phone stable for a more accurate AR experience.

Reality mode may consume a lot of power, so please pay attention to your phone's battery level when using it.

If your device does not support AR functionality or the camera quality is poor, the experience of reality mode may be affected.
