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):
The new way (location based):
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.
