Introduction

This is a first version of a smartphone/tablet like event display for the LHC/LHCb experiment. This first version is more a proof of concept (a "concept app") than an application ready to do physics. Anyway it can give to someone novice in high energy physics (HEP) a glance at what a HEP detector looks like.

The geometry comes from an lhcbfull.root file found on the CERN/ROOT web site (courtesy of the CERN/EP/SFT group). The bdpi_ghost.dst file coming with the app and containing two events is the default event file, created long time ago, for the LHCb Panoramix event display (courtesy of the LHCb software team). Else, the "way of doing" is the same than for the ioda application and the pmx app is developed by using the inlib/exlib as explained in the ioda web pages.
