PhotoStacker aligns and stacks astronomical night sky images using Coherent Point Drift (CPD) for precise star alignment. This project leverages external tools like SExtractor for source extraction and OpenCV ORB for feature detection and matching. It includes custom binaries for detection, registration, and transformation, ensuring accurate image alignment. The workflow script automates the process, making it easy to stack images for enhanced astronomical photography. The project is ideal for astrophotographers seeking to improve image quality through stacking, utilizing robust algorithms and open-source tools.
