but it can be used as a client to any remote or local INDIGO server with any supported cameras, filter wheel or focuser as well.
AstroImager also controls the set point cooling and the mechanical shutter of the attached camera (if available). It can preview or capture and save images with any count, duration and time lapse, browse captured images, zoom and stretch them automatically or manually, measure FWHM, HFD and the drift of a selected star and plate-solve image using public or local astrometry.net service.
AstroImager has simple sequencer to capture sequences of images with configurable duration, time lapse, count, base file name, binning and filter.
Images are stored in FITS, XISF, TIFF or JPEG formats with user defined keywords and can be debayered during preview. Sequences of images can be saved in video formats including AVI and SER as well.
Even if it can be used separately, it is meant to be used together with AstroTelescope and AstroGuider. If you want to use AstroImager, AstroGuider and AstroTelescope, you can consider to purchase INDIGO A1 (All-in-One) application instead.
AstroImager is a member of our astrophotography tools family including also AstroDSLR, AstroTelescope, AstroGuider, FITS Preview, INDIGO Server for OS X, INDIGO Control Panel, INDIGO Dashboard, INDIGO Script Editor, Astrometry for OS X and INDIGO Sky linux distribution for RaspberryPi.
