AstroImager

Easy-to-use astrophotography image capturing.

AstroImagerOverview

AstroImager is a powerful, but easy to use image capture application for the astrophotography. The built-in drivers support the following hardware:

  • ATIK Titan Mono & Colour
  • ATIK 3xx/4xx family CCDs
  • ATIK One 6 & 9 (and its internal filter wheel)
  • ATIK VS CCDs
  • ATIK GP Mono (1280x960 and 640x480 8-bit modes only)
  • ATIK EFW2 filter wheels
  • Starlight Xpress CCDs (all USB 2.0 cameras)
  • Starlight Xpress filter wheel

It can also be used as a client to any remote or local INDI server with any supported CCD or filter wheel.

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 to selected folder with any file name prefix, count, duration and time lapse, browse captured images and show them in Finder, zoom and stretch them automatically or manually. It can measure FWHM and the drift of a selected star to help easier and faster focus and align your equatorial telescope mount. Images are stored in FITS format using CFITSIO library with user defined keywords and can be debayered automatically during preview with custom offsets. Two separate filter name sets can be used for easier change of carousels. AstroImager is a member of our amateur astrophotography tools family including AstroTelescope and FITS Preview, AstroGuider will come soon.

You can download trial version of both AstroTelescope and AstroImager.
