Scientific paper

This paper discusses the automation of a backyard telescope system for multiple resolution spectroscopy surveys. The author will first review the optical & mechanical configuration and required modifications. Then he will describe the unique software implementation using multiple virtual machines to fully automate object selection, acquisition, and auto-guiding of two spectrographs and a photometry camera. The system described is now in operation on most clear nights.
