# 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.
