Live wind intelligence
Checksummed WindSonic M measurements are normalized, filtered, and classified before they can influence control.
HazeVaneView source Edge control for live atmospherics
Put haze where the wind can use it.
HazeVane reads live wind, models your stage and coverage on one infinite canvas, then sends deterministic sACN control—entirely from one durable ESP32-S3 appliance.

Outdoor atmospheric coverage is a geometry problem in motion. HazeVane continuously converts trusted local wind into a bounded, explainable decision, activating useful upwind fixtures while keeping the rest safely at standby.

Purpose-built controlEverything needed on site.
Everything needed on site.
Nothing that does not belong.
One bounded appliance owns measurement, geometry, selection, DMX rendering, output, and operator visibility.
Infinite site canvas
Site, stage, FOH, coverage, hazers, predicted plumes, and live status share one direct-manipulation workspace.
Geometric plume scoring
Every enabled hazer is scored against up to 256 coverage samples using wind, reach, spread, and directional influence.
Fail-safe by design
Stale wind, sensor faults, command loss, disarm, and blackout drive explicit safe scenes rather than guessed output.
Transparent autosave
Non-network edits validate, persist, and apply after a short debounce without clearing arm, blackout, wind history, or console takeover.
Deterministic show control
Four selection policies feed safe, standby, and active DMX scenes over standards-formed E1.31 sACN.
One continuous loop
Measure. Model. Select. Send.
Each stage is bounded, observable, and designed to fail toward safe output.

The actual controller UI
See the site. See the decision.
Every screenshot below comes from the production host simulator running the same wind parser, control core, and configuration surface as the ESP32 firmware.
01 / Infinite canvas
The whole site stays in view.
Wind, control state, site bounds, stage, FOH, coverage, predicted plumes, and every hazer share one continuous operator workspace.
- Pan infinitely, zoom at the cursor, or fit around open overlays
- Wind-from bearing and downwind flow stay unambiguous
- Arm, blackout, connection, and autosave remain at the edges
Move the show, not a spreadsheet.
Drag stage and FOH bodies, resize from any corner, rotate from the front edge, and align FOH with live distance and soft guides. Work in feet or metres; the engine remains SI.
Tune without losing the canvas.
Choose Best N, All qualified, Minimum set, or Weighted rotation; configure wind and sACN; and apply network settings as one isolated change.
Console-ready
Bring HazeVane onto the lighting desk.
A dedicated sACN command universe provides maintained remote enable, arm, blackout, and ten bounded manual-test channels. Priority arbitration, optional CID locking, timeout behavior, and diagnostics remain inside the appliance.

Honest release status
Software baseline complete.
Hardware acceptance still matters.
The v0.6.2 software baseline now includes the infinite canvas, stage and FOH alignment tools, direct geometry editing, contextual canvas actions, persistent units, transparent autosave, ESP32-S3 firmware integration, OTA, and console control. Production RS-422, enclosure, grounding, surge/ESD, fixture values, recovery, and field acceptance remain release gates.
