A location based night sky background for MagicMirror Using the SkyView APP(a location based augmented view of the night sky with stars and satellites) i was wondering how this could be made possible for MagicMirror. The idea is to make use of the MagicMirror’s black background with a layer of stars that are changing during the day depending on your location. The old way (time based): [image: day_and_night_wrist_watch.jpg] The new way (location based): [image: example2small.png] For example a nice looking Ref6. A few more examples of MagicMirror with use of online sky maps*: Example1 using the map of Ref1. Example2 using the map of Ref4. & Ref5. Example3 using the map of Ref2. Example4 using the map of Ref6. I’m sharing this to make this idea available using a module. *References used in examples: Location based online sky view maps Ref1. http://neave.com/planetarium/ Ref2. http://theskylive.com/planetarium#ra|8.113703391538692|dec|-14.419127710596998|fov|50 Ref3. http://www.astroviewer.com/night-sky-code.php?lon=4.89&lat=52.37&city=Amsterdam&tz=CET Ref4.

Good evening, I was quite excited when I read about this module. And since there is the MMM-Profileswitcher, I would really like to know if someone has tried to connect the swipe-module to the profileswitcher? Unfortunately I am a programming NOOB, is there anybody out there who wants to develop this module any further? There is the module from thobach at https://github.com/thobach/MMM-Gestures. But I wanted to use the HCSR-04 ultrasonic range instead an arduino …
