Telescopes: Automation
Scientific paper
The authors have developed a robotic telescope system primarily for use in a new undergraduate laboratory. The system consists of a 486 PC running Unix/Motif which controls an equatorial mount, focus, dome, filter wheel, and CCD camera. The entire system can be controlled using an X-terminal anywhere on the Internet. In addition, the telescope can be scheduled so that a series of observations can be run sequentially completely unattended. The software is highly modular and can be easily adopted to a variety of hardware platforms.
