RTS2 is project to create an open source environment for control of a fully autonomous observatory. It is running about dozen fully autonomous observatories. Its modular design allow easily addition of new devices (to already huge supported HW list).

Features

  • plug&play device support
  • integrated observatory management
  • weather reporting system
  • automagicall device synchronization
  • JSON interface for all devices and subsystems
  • target database
  • (meta-)queues and merit function scheduling
