Project-Atlas

Status: Current

Description: Project-Atlas is the name given to my open source go-to telescope that I began designing in the spring of 2021 for the RPI Arch Away. It consists of a chassis that was partially designed and 3d printed by me, which is controlled by a number of stepper motors powered by a Raspberry Pi 3B+/4. The code in the project directory will deal with the calculations required to locate the celestial objects, the movement of the telescope, and taking pictures with the help of the HQ RasPiCamera.
