astroDevice is a software platform for the control of astronomical instruments (telescope mount, filter wheel, focuser and CCD) through a single interface. This platform manages any astronomical device through plug-ins. It can manage multiple devices of same type (eg two telescope mounts). astroDevice is an alternative to ASCOM and INDI by providing a common interface between each device type and astronomy software such as Starry Night, KStars, Skychart and Stellarium. The platform is based on a client-server architecture to provide the ability to control the astronomical devices remotely.

Features

  • Multi-OS (Windows, Linux and OS X)
  • Based on a client/server architecture for provide the ability to control the astronomical devices remotely
  • Drivers telescopes, cameras, filters wheels, focusers, rotators, domes and safety monitors
  • Manage multiple devices of same type (eg two telescope mounts)
