Allsky Imager

 

The selfmade allsky imager provides each minute a high resolution digital photo from the sky above the site. It was a project of the apprentices of our workshop based on a prototype from John Kalisch / IFM-Geomar, Kiel, Germany.

It consists of a digital Camera Canon Phtoshot G9 with 12.1 Megapixel and a Fisheye objective Raynox DCR-CF185PRO build into an outdoor housing. The photos are stored on a linux computer transferred via Gphoto2.

Examples for daily movies you find on our ftp-server:
