Digital telescope Unistellar eVscope eQuinox
The Unistellar eVscope eQuinox is a smart digital telescope with a built-in computer and a sensitive Sony sensor. There is no usual eyepiece here; the image from the telescope is transmitted in real time to a connected smartphone or tablet. Communication is carried out via a Wi-Fi network and a downloadable mobile application. Thanks to this, you don’t even need to be near the telescope to conduct astronomical observations - it can be placed on the balcony or in the yard, and you will explore outer space while sitting on the sofa. The ability to observe and photograph very dim space objects The optical-digital “filling” makes it possible to accelerate the magnification to 400x, of course, in digital quality. The aperture is sufficient for visual observations of dim objects and for very clear and contrasting astrophotography. Patented Enhanced Vision technology allows the telescope to collect light from astronomical objects in real time and thereby render star clusters, comets and galaxies with maximum detail. What is usually almost impossible to see with a regular telescope will appear on the screen of a device connected to the Unistellar eVscope eQuinox in just a few seconds (light from particularly dim objects may take a little longer to accumulate). “Smart” technologies to combat stray urban light Another important feature of the telescope is its effective suppression of light noise, which makes it an excellent choice for observations within the city. The technology is called Smart Light Pollution Reduction: thanks to it, the telescope automatically detects background light (light from city lights or excessively bright light from the Moon) and filters it to maximize the brightness of the observed object and allow it to be seen clearly. Automatic search and maintenance system, database of 5000 astronomical objects The software also eliminates the need to configure the telescope in any way. It autonomously explores the space of the star field, recognizes detected objects, compares what is “seen” with the coordinate base, and carries out guidance and tracking of objects. This allows you to save time on setup and calibration, devoting your leisure time exclusively to observations and research. The downloadable mobile application provides access to information and coordinates of 5,000 astronomical objects - any of which the telescope can independently find in the sky. For beginners, the most useful is the fully automatic mode, in which the application will suggest which objects can be observed in a particular region and what is worth knowing about these objects. Experienced astronomers can choose to use the application in manual mode. Joint scientific research with members of the Unistellar Network Unistellar Network is a global community that unites several thousand people - astronomy enthusiasts and owners of Unistellar smart telescopes. As a member, you can share information within the community, discuss observations with other members, and even contribute to the research of astronomers at the SETI Institute and other organizations. Simplicity and ease of use The telescope is very compact and well suited for travel. The controls are as simple as possible, but in terms of functionality the telescope cannot be called a model for beginners. It demonstrates a professional-level picture and makes it possible to conduct very accurate observations of space objects without making excessive efforts. It is also convenient that you can conduct group observations: up to 10 mobile devices can be connected to the telescope at the same time. Please note: a backpack for carrying and storage is not included and can be purchased separately.
