Description
SOS Remote is a universal app for the iPhone*, iPod Touch*, and iPad that is used to control a Science On a Sphere® (SOS) system.
SOS is a room sized, global display system that uses computers and video projectors to display planetary data onto a six-foot diameter sphere, analogous to an animated globe. SOS is used as an educational tool to help illustrate Earth System science to people of all ages in a way that is intuitive and captivating.
The SOS Remote app affords greater interaction capabilities and ease of use compared to previous SOS controllers such as the Wii Remote. With this app, you can:
• Adjust the orientation of the sphere in an intuitive way
• Control playback of datasets
• Load any presentation playlist stored on the SOS computer
• Quickly search and browse the entire SOS Data Catalog and select datasets at random to load on the sphere
• View a dataset's description and presenter notes while giving an SOS presentation
• Quickly create a presentation playlist directly from the iPad
• Draw on and zoom into a dataset loaded on the sphere
• Dynamically turn on/off dataset layers and pips and adjust their transparency
• Split the sphere into 2-4 vertical slices to replicate a portion of the dataset around the sphere
• Perform full alignment of the sphere using an intuitive three step process
* Note: The iPhone/iPod Touch support only a subset of the features described above. The iPad supports all features.
Requirements:
• In order to functionally use the SOS Remote app, you must have a Science On a Sphere® (SOS) installation
• Wi-Fi or Bluetooth access to the SOS computer that is being controlled
• SOS Software Version 5.5.0

- In the presentation file selector dialog (accessed through the Presentation tab's Open Folder icon), playlists are now grouped into folders just as they are on the SOS computer so that it is easier to find playlists.
- In the iPad's System Settings > SOS Remote section, an additional IP address field has been added for the backup SOS computer so that it is easier to switch between the primary and backup IP addresses when needed.

2018-02-05
This version of the app introduces a new pop-up user interface to access a new SOS feature called Spotlight datasets. Spotlight datasets are a handful of SOS datasets periodically selected by the NOAA SOS Team to showcase datasets in the SOS Data Catalog that are: compelling and may be new to you, a current event, a historical event, a new SOS feature, the latest dataset, an updated dataset, etc. This feature supports a succinct way for users to explore the SOS Data Catalog over time and provides quick access to datasets that highlight timely events.

• The transfer time of the SOS Data Catalog from the SOS computer to the iPad has been greatly reduced.
Bug Fixes:
• The Data Info dialog would sometimes display the wrong dataset description, thumbnail and/or dataset playlist path.
• The dataset thumbnails in the Playlist list or Data Catalog list were sometimes incorrect or missing, especially for Live Programs.
• The Missing Dataset or Missing Playlist error messages would sometimes incorrectly pop up on the iPad after selecting a dataset to load onto the sphere even though the dataset/playlist were present on the SOS computer.

The app now supports a new feature called the Splitter. The Splitter can partition Science On a Sphere® into up to four slices that are replicas of the slice of data that is currently being displayed on the sphere at the center of the user locator. This feature is especially useful for presenting to large groups of people that are located all around the sphere.

Chris Eller,
The one and only
SOS Remote is a great augmentation of the SOS system and quite a functional improvement over the Wii remote interface.
