On the Unipos website, the omnidirectional camera series "All-Sky Camera (ALPHEA/OMEA/EUDA)page has been added.
ALCOR SYSTEM's All-Sky Camera (ALPHEA/OMEA/EUDA) is a spherical camera for continuous monitoring of the night sky and daytime sky, and is also compatible with astronomy and atmospheric research.
Thanks to its high-sensitivity camera, it can record images of the night sky with excellent image quality, and since it generates images of stars that do not follow the rotation of the earth, there is no need for star tracking.
It can record everything from fast phenomena such as meteors and fireballs to slow phenomena such as satellites, rockets, noctilucent clouds, zodiacal lights, auroras and airglow.
Main uses (fields of application)
astronomy
Map of cloud cover and transparency, farm of robotic telescopes
Free Space Optical Communications (FSO)
