Hi ProductHunt community! First of all, huge thanks to @kwdinc for hunting us!
PeakVisor is an augmented reality app which answers the most common question in the mountains. What that mountain is?! Probably, it will be able to answer other questions soon ;-)
Here’s how it works:
1. You point the phone camera at mountains
2. PeakVisor labels all the peaks
3. PeakVisor renders semi-transparent terrain model, so you could adjust & calibrate phone sensors
That's it!
Here are some details about our PeakVisor journey (a quick read): https://medium.com/@denivipmedia...
We’d love to hear your comments and feedback!
Thank you!
Looks nice! It would be great to show some other information as well. Obviously, mountain huts :)
Maybe major attractions. Have you thought about that? Any plans?
@flighthack We plan to add mountain huts in the next release (a couple of weeks from now). Didn't think about attractions, but I agree that it might be interesting to see some special things. For example, here in Europe we often have castles in the mountains and it might be useful to see them as well.
@pbriod Please send me an email on denis@routes.tips is you'd like to be one of the first to get the Android version. It should be ready in several weeks.
No more relying on my mountaineering father to school me! haha. Great looking product, definitely gonna give it a whirl. Only see meters in vid and pics. Is there an option to change for us yanks to use ft?
@jaicrum We use the distance units as they are setup in phone system settings (locale). General -> Language & Region - > Region Formats. If you have the US there when you will see ft. Could it be that you have any other country in that place?
@jeremyz123 We hope to extend use-cases over time. A.e. most of the cities have observation decks at the top of skyscrapers, towers, etc. So, we will be showing major attractions from there.

@denivipmedia makes too much sense!
Basically, ultimately you can become the AR version of a google maps... which as a map fan is pretty cool.
@jeremyz123 oh yes, there are so many things possible, especially after inevitable hardware improvements (more precise and stable magnetometers, accelerometer, gyroscope).
