# followspot-psn
|
|
|
|
Solution for controlling followspots, and sending the position data to ma3 over [posistagenet (PSN)](https://posistage.net/). It uses [psn-py](https://github.com/vyv/psn-py) to do PSN stuff.
|
|
|
|
### Deployment
|
|
**TLDR**: `docker compose up --build` on a Linux machine.
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
Why Linux? This is because PSN uses multicast to transmit positional data to ma3. On linux this is done using host networking driver. However the host networking driver on macOS or windows will only allow broadcasting on the docker linux VM. It could probably be done using some fancy routing/bridge setup with the docker VM.

This opens a webserver on port 8000 where you can control the PSN trackers. PSN data is multicasted on `236.10.10.10:56565`. Tracker positions can also be updated using OSC, by default OSC listens on port 9000. The OSC endpoint expects data on `/Tracker/{trackerid}` with three floats specifying x, y and z value.
|
|
|
|
Currently all configuration is done in the source files, most notably in [psn_server.py](backend/psn_server.py).

The rest of the functionality is documented in the code.
