INTRODUCTION
Shira Dome Console is a total solution application especially for stationary planetariums.
"Shira Presenter" 8K Fulldome Player and "OpenSpace" Space Engine (MIT License) were
combined under a single program, resulting in "Shira Dome Console".
The application uses the Shira Presenter sub-application to achieve media playback, various
visual effects and projector output. For detailed information about Shira Presenter
https://www.sureyyasoft.com/index.php/en/planetarium-shiraproject/domeplayer
3
It uses OpenSpace infrastructure for application for space studies and astronomy education.
OpenSpace is open source interactive data visualization software designed to visualize the
entire known universe and depict our ongoing efforts to explore the universe.
The foremost “Science Board Partner” of the application is the American Museum of Natural
History (AMNH).
The American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) is one of the largest natural history
museums in the world. The museum has a full-time scientific staff of 200 active researchers,
collections of more than 33 million plant, animal, mineral and cultural artifacts, and digital
collections that include astrophysical data, molecular and genomic sequences, and satellite
imagery. AMNH has a distinguished history as a leader in science visualization technology
designed to convey sophisticated science concepts to a general audience. The museum also
has a long history of successful partnerships with NASA, advancing science education for
local and international audiences.
For detailed information about the Open Space Project.
https://www.openspaceproject.com/
Control of all the features provided by the OpenSpace program can be done from within the
Shira Dome Console.
In this user manual, explanations will be made on the Shira Dome Console interfaces, which
mainly manage the OpenSpace application. Help information about the Dome Player can be
accessed from the owner's manual in Shira Presenter.

LICENSE AND TERMS OF USE

Copyright (c) 2020-2021 SureyyaSoft Planetarium Technologies.
The Shira Dome Console requires a commercial license for use in the planetarium
dome. While SDC is running, SureyyaSoft logo is displayed on the projector screen.
SDC has two types of licensing features: single and multiple projector licenses. This
logo displayed in the background indicates that the product is not yet licensed by
SureyyaSoft.
Please contact SureyyaSoft for licensing procedures.
PREVIEW WINDOW
8
There are two preview windows in SDC, the first is the main screen offered by OpenSpace. Here the
image is taken for a single compass direction. Rotation, Zoom, Roll effects cannot be applied with
mouse control.
With these three controls, movements initiated by the mouse are allowed to be
damped by the effect of friction, or by deselecting (by clicking) the effect of
friction is removed.
9
With the compass direction buttons, the view direction angle is changed with the flight movement
effect.
The second preview screen is the one presented by Shira Presenter. There are 4 types of previews
available. Mouse controls here will not affect the Open Space screen.
See the Shira Presenter user manual for detailed information.
Wide Angle preview with Shira Presenter
The information in the upper left corner shows the distance to the target object, the latitude
longitude height on the spherical object and the simulation time.
10
CONTROL WINDOW
Stops OpenSpace rendering. Its purpose is to stop the GPU operations that
would be unnecessary when any video playback starts by “Shira Presenter” so
that the video performance is not affected. This is done automatically when the
video is started with “Shira Presenter”. At the end of the video, if the loop
option is not selected, it is automatically clicked to start the OpenSpace
rendering process.
SETTINGS
11
Language: Multi-language support is available in SDC. Supported language selection is made

from the language drop-down box.
Open Space
Output Quality : Open Space determines the output render resolution. Selection is made
between 1K and 8K. The performance of the hardware should be taken into account when
selecting the value.
Tilt Angle: A value between 0-45 degrees can be given according to the tilt angle of the
projection dome. When 0 degrees is selected, the output performance will be higher.
WMS Cache Enabled: In OpenSpace, the data received from the Web Map Title service is
selected to be kept in the cache.
Offline Mode: Allows OpenSpace to continue running without a request to retrieve data over
the internet. In this case, the cached data is shown.
Web Remote Control: Activates the SDC to be controlled on another device (PC, Table, IPAD,
phone) over the network via the web interface.
Map Control
Use Software OpenGL : When this option is selected, the map control on the "Date, Time and
Layout" screen in SDC is enabled to use software-based screen commands, not hardware. This
option has been added because some computers have problems with remote access controls.
This option should be selected in order to save the last states of the features
when exiting the SDC and start with these states at power-on again. (Some
features are exempted from status registration processes.)
LICENSE MANAGER
12

PROFIL AND MISSIONS
Different profile definitions that come with OpenSpace have been developed and
implemented in SDC.
A little different from the way it works in OpenSpace, the profiler in SDC has been developed
in a structure that allows access to the actions of the loaded profile after the planetarium is
opened with the location mode in the general usage features. Extra was only allowed to load
on boot to one additional profile.
When any profiling "Load on startup" feature is selected, a message is displayed on the
screen and a warning is given that the profiling program will be active when it is restarted.
38
11 separate profiles and tasks consist of:
1. Asteroids & Comets : When the Meteors and Comets profile is selected, the
corresponding buttons in the View settings become active. Meteorites and comets
are displayed.
2. Mars2020: Simulates the landing of the rover called Perseverance, designed for Mars,
to the Martian surface.
3. Insight (Discovery Mission): Simulates the landing of the Insight rover on the surface
of Mars.
4. James Web Telescope : Contains animations of JWT space telescope's orbital
placement and positioning of its panels.
5. Apollo Missions : Simulates the missions of Apollo 8,11 and 17 from earth to launch
and landing on the lunar surface.
6. Dawn Mission : Includes mission simulation of Dawn satellite reaching Vesta
meteorite.
7. Juno Mission: Simulates the mission of the Juno satellite sent to gather detailed
information about Jupiter.
8. Messenger Mission: Simulates the mission of the Messenger satellite orbiting
Mercury to gain detailed information about Mercury.
9. New Horizons : Simulates the mission of the satellite vehicle that has provided us
with information about Pluto and nearby dwarf planets.
10. Osiris-Rex : Simulates the mission of the satellite craft, which was produced to take a
sample by landing on the meteorite named Bennu.
11. Voyager missions: Simulates the space mission of the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft,
which has provided us with information about our solar system over 40 years.
Detailed information about profile and tasks. can be obtained by clicking the buttons.
Note: During the use of profiles, a computer with memory hardware higher than 16GB ram
may be required.
DATA2DOME
The Data2Dome service is a data standard for dome display developed by the European
Southern Observatory (ESO). (https://www.eso.org/public/outreach/data2dome/).
The Data2Dome feature is a content distribution and publishing standard for seamlessly
bringing astronomy data to planetarium systems in real time. Detailed information on the
subject can be found on the website of the International Union of Planetariums (IPS). (
http://www.ips-planetarium.org/?page=data2dome )
39
Sureyyasoft company integrated Data2Dome (D2D) work into ShiraUniverse (other product)
and became one of the developers supporting Data2Dome work. This feature was also
integrated into SDC and its contribution to the D2D project was continued.
Content supported by D2D
- Flat, Fisheye and Panoramic (Equirectangular) images
- Flat and Fisheye videos.
Warning: "Data2Dome" feature requires active internet connection.
SDC is in D2D content list tree view and gets online from the service addresses in the web
file specified in the "d2dFeeds.txt" file in the "Data2Dome" folder. Web services that will
provide other Data2Dome services in the future can be added to this list.
The separation bar on the right of the list can be pulled to the left to increase the usage area
Sub-branch addresses can be retrieved by connecting to websites with the button.

SCRIPT MANAGER
The script manager consists of two main parts.
“Open Space Recorder“ and “Shira Javascript based script tool”.
Open Space Recoring Utilty
OpenSpace's own recording tool is available here. As soon as the recording is started, all
operations performed on the openspace screen are recorded as text files in a readable
format.
43
Start Recording Stop recording Delete selected record
Export the selected record's execution commands to the "Shira javascript Console".
When you want to start the recording process with the start recording button, the name of
the new recording file that will be uniquely entered should be entered in the window that
opens.
"Record name" and "Record duration" information is displayed on the file icon that occurs
when the recording is completed. To run this record again, it is sent as a code to the
Javascript field with the selected record button . The posted code block is executed
there.
Shira Javascript based command files
44
This tool is obtained by rebuilding the script library using OpenSpace Lua language using
Javascipt language.
All commands in the Open Space Lua script library are supported.
However, for OpenSpace, firstly, register with "Open Space Recorder" and
core.runARecordSession('Rec1'); We recommend playing the OpenSpace recording related
to the command. At the points where this file is insufficient, javascript commands can be
used in between.
The Open Space scripting language library html-based help file can be accessed from the
following file path in the folder where the SDC is located..
ShiraDomeConsole\Packages\OpenSpace\documentation\index.html
Except for the OpenSpace library, the following commands are supported.
core. runARecordSession(‘RecordName’) : The OpenSpace log file is run, after the time
expires, the next script is passed.
core.debug(“information”) : Information is printed to the console output.
core.wait (n) : The line of script waits n seconds..
- Existing script files in the "\scripts" folder are listed in the list on the left. The script file
extension is ".sds".
- User can create user-defined buttons and assign events in "Script Frame" using script
commands.
A sample button creation command group and screenshot are as follows.
45
var tab = core.addTab("Constellations");

var btn = core.addButton(tab,"Show Const\nLines", true);
btn.setWH(150,100);
function buttonClick(isChecked)
{
if(isChecked) {
openspace.setPropertyValue("Scene.Constellations.Renderable.Fade",0);
openspace.setPropertyValue("Scene.Constellations.Renderable.Enabled",true);
openspace.setPropertyValue("Scene.Constellations.Renderable.DrawElements",true);
openspace.setPropertyValue("Scene.Constellations.Renderable.Fade",1,2);
}
else {
openspace.setPropertyValue("Scene.Constellations.Renderable.Fade",0,2);
}
}
btn.clicked.connect(buttonClick);
Constellation lines are opened and closed with the button created with this script command.
