This project is an iOS application for astronomy enthusiasts. Information is shown about each major object in our solar system. Wth a nice looking UI and ease of use, users will find this application very useful for grabbing quick information about our little home in the universe.
This project was made using the following techniques:
- Xcode - IDE
- Swift - Programming Language
- 3D Assets - For planetary objects
- Included is a json file created by me to populate the UI with needed information
- Optimized to work with multiple iOS devices
A screenshot of the home screen for now. A gridview of each major object in the solar system.
Next, a screenshot of one of the planet views. Quick and easy access to information about any known planet in our solar system. Included is a 3D model of each planet which the user can interact with!
Couldn't have made this app without help from thrid parties. Getting 3D models and scientific information was the major factor in completing this app.
