AstroMate is a project for automating repeating astrophotography tasks, such as equatorial mount polar alignment and target centering, by integrating existing tools and especially plate solving to the ASCOM telescope control interface.

This project has been replaced by AstroTortilla.

Features

  • Integrates existing solutions without reinventing the wheel
  • Automated plate-solved GoTo correction
  • Automated drift alignment shot
  • Mount alignment based on plate solved images (Rel. 2)

Project Samples

Repeated go-to corrections even from saved images.
