The PiFinder uses plate solving technology to quickly and accurately determine where your telescope is pointing by taking photos of the sky and identifying star patterns in the image. This direct measurement of sky position does away with the need for multi-star alignment, sky models or other set up. In under one second it can provide precise positioning on any telescope. No encoders required and as easy to install as a red dot finder.

So, my buddy made one of these. Apparently, it works very well. #PiFinder #RaspberryPi He also #3DPrinted the scope. #yegastro #Astronomy #Astrophotograpy #3DPrinting Hadley
Ade@lancetay That's nice. I've only ever had a cheapo refractor but can still make out Saturn's rings with it. Once managed to mount a disassembled webcam on it and got a few blurry captures.
Have you got any images from it?
@newt_othis I have not taken any images through it. I think he still needs some kind of poncet on it before so he can track. Makes finding stuff easy. 1 Second updates / resolve, look through EP and there it is.
