Final Presentation Outline

• Project Overview
• Objective
• Review original design
• Describe project construction and functional
  tests
• Discuss successes and challenges
• Future Development

Project Overview
Project Overview

• Using a telescope can be entertaining but also
  frustrating
• Difficulties include
• Locating a celestial object
• Keeping the object within view over time

4
Project Overview Cont
Project Overview
These difficulties can be overcome through the
design of a motorized telescope that can track a
celestial object while remaining resistant to
disturbances.
5
Original Goals

• Original Goals
• Design a self-calibrating computer-positioning
  telescope
• Should withstand disturbances and stay centered
  on the desired object
• Should be easy to use while remaining relatively
  cheap to implement

6
Design Concerns Specifications

• Speed
• Point to point movement and tracking require
  different speeds

• Resolution
• A small change in telescope position yields a
  large change in the field of view

7
Speed
Speed

• Specifications for Point to Point Movement
• 72.00 / sec
• Specifications for Tracking Speed
• 360/23.93446743 hrs.
• 15.04107000 / hr.

8
Resolution
Resolution
Resolution is the smallest movement possible in
a system High Resolution Requirements - 0.25
degrees - Half of the field of view at medium
magnification - Increase resolution by
gearing down the system

Resolution
Resolution and Accuracy
High Resolution Requirements - 0.25 degrees -
Half of the field of view at medium
magnification - Increase resolution by
gearing down the system Accuracy .-0.25
degrees -Any more error and objects will leave
field of view

Future Developments
Future Developments

• Sensor Integration
• -Greater system autonomy
• High resolution encoders
• -Would allow for much greater accuracy
• Inclusion of Position data
• -Allow users to target objects by name
  rather than coordinates
