Earth, Moon & Sun

Here is an application that shows the Earth revolving around the Sun and the Moon revolving around the Earth. This application is a modification of a demo of an application that uses the Min3D library.

Operations supported

  • Start or Pause the motion of the planets
  • Pan
  • Observe - rotate the planets

  • Zoom - In and Out

  • Increase or Decreased the speed

  • Reset to starting configuration

Photo Cube

A simple image viewing application that displays photos on the six sides of a cube. Six photographs are displayed at a time (as a cube has only six sides :-).

Operations supported

  • Rotate the left and right
  • Zoom In and Zoom Out
  • Move to the next set of six images
  • Move to the previous set of six images

If the number of images on the SD card are not completely divisible by six, the remaining images are replaced by a place-holder image.

The application has been developed using OpenGL.

Aero Hurdle

A game like the one I have already published, namely "Aeroplane", but this time using the accelerometer.

The aim is to fly an aeroplane through a maze. The game contains 8 levels (mazes) and any level can be played at any time.

To begin the game, tap the screen.

While playing the game, ensure that the handset is held parallel to the ground - as if it were placed on a table. The plane can be moved forward, backward, left or right using the accelerometer. The end of the maze is indicated by green blocks.

If you hit an obstacle, the level is over.

PS: I want to publish a "Pro" version on this game with more levels and also where the player can define their own level. If you wish to help me publish this game as a paid application, drop me an email at my Gmail address which is the same as this blog name.

Personal Data Erase Pro

These days, we end up storing a lot of data on smartphones. If you wish to erase this data in a jiffy, this application is for you.

By default, this application, deletes all files in the following directories, namely "private", "personal", "self", "mydata", "my-data", "my_data" and "documents".

After one execution, it is possible to specify any directory, by editing the file "PersonalDataErase.txt", placed in the directory "Android/data/bsp" on the SD card. Simply give one directory on each line and application will delete the directory and its contents.

This application is a "Pro" version of a similar application, namely "Personal Data Erase". The difference between the two applications is that this application overwrites the files with random data, before erasing the files and the directories.
