Application

Horizon

Compass and inclination tool built around Android sensors

Android

Kotlin
Android SDK
Sensors API
Jetpack Compose

Highlights

Compass heading and angle visualization
Lean UI designed around precise readings
Real-time sensor processing on Android

Code sample

data class HorizonReading(
  val azimuth: Float,
  val pitch: Float,
  val roll: Float,
  val calibrationState: CalibrationState,
)

Problem

Generic utility apps often bury the most important reading under chrome, ads or ornamental UI. Horizon approaches the screen more like a measuring instrument than a content feed.

Implementation

The application consumes orientation and motion sensors, applies smoothing where needed and renders the final state with clear contrast so the reading remains legible outdoors and in motion.

Sensor fusion and sampling discipline
Compose-driven interface with large touch targets
Minimal visual theme inspired by physical tools
