Control mechanisms (stepper motors, sensors, positioning.)Ĭontains the necessary scripts for testing isolately the communications with Stellarium, communications with the device,Īnd the Arduino library for coordinate transformation (Matrix Method implementation). Coordinate transformations (based on Toshimi Taki's Matrix Method for Coodinates Transformation). Communications with the computer (receiving commands and parameters, and sending responses). Communications with the device (USB-Serial). Communications with Stellarium (( (client-server\)), python-bitstring)). One for Arduino microcontroller (device): The software is divided on two main blocks, the first one implemented in Python (computer) and the other You can see more images, schematics and parts details in the images folder. The laser points towards the celestial objects indicated from Stellarium, by using a This project consists on a first approach to control a telescope mechanism, builded from scratch andīased on Arduino microcontroller, from a computer with GNU/Linux and the Stellarium software.īy the moment, the code has been tested only in a mini-dobsonian mount with a green laser pointer instead
