8. conclusion
Momentary position analysis will show us detail behavior of the body in the atmosphere.
Time synchronization will be powerful tool for us!
Synchronized video recording may be possible in the future,
but re-sampling is feasible way now.

10. SCcode : universal shower code
Automated decidable 4 char shower code, independent from constellations
-- expression of sol, ra, dec, vg at the shower peak
-- 36 number system using in 4 dimension space
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
“srdv”
s: peak appearance solar longitude of the Sun, / 10 degree step
r: ra of radiant / 10 degree step
d: dec of radiant / 5 degree step
v: vg / 2 km/s step
Ex.) PER (139.0, 47.0, 57.6, 58.6) -> d46t
LEO (235.5,154,0,21.8,69.9) -> nfdy
GEM (262.3,112.7,32.3,33.6) -> qbbg
