The Orekit project wanted to test the feasibility of using standard tablets for spatial dynamics tasks, with a long-term goal of enabling satellite orbit control stations to be controlled remotely to save costs. As part of the Summer of Code in Space, I ported the Orekit framework to Android, worked with the Apache Common Math project to fix some speed issues with DalvikVM, and developed a proof of concept Android application to carry out basic spatial dynamics tasks.
