TL;DR: Concept for real time user defined waypoints.


Waypoint-Demo-1.gif


Overview

This is a demonstration of a waypoint system for a multi-function display. This demo includes four waypoints that display their relative bearing to the next one. This demo still needs quite a bit of optimization and debugging, but it's in a workable state.

Operation

AG-1 Open/Close Laptop
AG-2 Mouse Mode
AG-7 Large Display Mode (It shows the true scale of the demo)
Pitch and Roll: Move Cursor
Spacebar: Pick Up Waypoint
Webcam: Change Cursor Speed
Waypoint Buttons: Activate Waypoint 1-4

    Link to the Desmos version

    I will probably post an updated version of the demo in May after my school semester is over. I do plan to post documentation of the variables so that it is easier for users to integrate into builds.

    Thank you all for the support, I honestly didnt expect this to do as well as it did due to all the bugs. I have a lot of plans for this concept in SP2 :)
