I made an example "digital sextant"/navigation computer in JavaScript. Sadly most browser's support for controlling the camera limits its usefulness, but I am typically able to get within 10 miles of my actual location. I made it mostly as an example of how the algorithms work for a talk I gave for the Louisville Astronomical Society.
