Star Chart*, from Escape Velocity Limited*
Explore the wonders of the solar system from your Ultrabook™ 2 in 1 with Star Chart* - a free stargazing and astronomy app. Visit the planets, explore their rings and moons, learn about the constellations, and travel both forwards and backwards in time.
Spot a particularly bright star overhead and want to know what it’s called? Simply put your Ultrabook in tablet mode, hold it up to the sky and Star Chart will tell you exactly what you are looking at. Alternatively, explore the universe from your desk in laptop mode, using your keyboard and mouse for pinpoint accuracy as you journey around the night sky.
Check out this You Tube video of Sam Shepherd, director of Escapist Games, describing Star Chart and how its touch and sensor controls make exploring the universe a memorable experience with Ultrabook devices.
The Intel Advantage:
- Touch screen allows you to pan across solar system or to zoom in on stars using intuitive touch gestures.
- Intel® HD Graphics, built right into the processor, ensure an eye-popping visual experience with smooth, immersive experience as you fly to the moon.
- Sensors in the Ultrabook are essential – they inform Star Chart where you are, where you’re pointing the Ultrabook, and so on.
- The performance of the 4th generation Intel® Core™ processors means that Star Chart on Ultrabook takes the experience to a new level. Now able to draw on even more data before, Star Chart can take you to places it couldn’t before and view the sky in extra detail.
