Lattepanda V1.0 min-PC for remote control of astrophotography
Use a Windows 10 mini-PC
to control your setup with
your preferred softs and devicesLattepanda V1.0 is a windows 10 mini-PC.
The big advantages to my eyes, compared to Raspberry are :
- 1 USB 3.1 port,
- integrated 2GB ram + 32GB SSD (the model I use),
- Windows 10 and the possibiity to easily remote control the mini-PC via TeamViewer,
- the possibility to easily install the usual astronomy ans astrophoto softwares, inclkuding ASCOM platform,
- the possibility to use any type of camera and dslr.The following picture describes the differents ports and connexions of the board :
The following picture describes the different divices connected to the Lattepanda, in my remote astrophotography setup.
The following picture describes the "basic" set of softwares installed on the Lattepanda, for remote control, of cameras and equatorial mount.
The mini-PC may be remotely controlled via TeamViewer with an android tab or smartphone (e.g : Galaxy Tab A 10.5) or a computer. Wifi or LAN connexion may be used.
For those who have a personnal observatory, the embedded Arduino pinouts allow to control accesories such a focuser.
