CloudWatcher and Solo PART 5 - CloudWatcher Software (Chapter 3/3)

Описание: The third and final part of our in-depth look at the CloudWatcher software.

The CloudWatcher is a high-precision, low-cost weather and safety monitoring system for astronomers and astrophotographers. The Solo is the CloudWatcher's trusty companion.

The CloudWatcher monitors just about everything (cloudiness, rain, temperature, brightness—now in the form of sky quality measurements—, and optionally wind, relative humidity and dew point, and atmospheric pressure). It is designed to be installed outside as a safety monitor, with configurable alarms and script implementation so the user is warned, or the observatory is closed, etc. when conditions become unsafe. It can also work as a regular weather station for feeding information into images.

With the Solo, the CloudWatcher becomes all the more powerful. The Solo is a mini-computer designed to control the CloudWatcher 24/7, among other things allowing you to publish the data online so it can be accessed from anywhere.
