AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Equatorial mounts are prone to losing their orientation in the event of a sudden power outage, which can cause a change in the zero point and interrupt the observation mission. In existing technologies, the zero point is not fixed when the power is directly applied for startup, which affects the accuracy of the observation.

Method used

Employing an optical coupler sensor and a magnetic polar axis mirror structure, the optical coupler sensor identifies the equatorial mount's position through a fan-shaped light-blocking plate, while the magnetic polar axis mirror allows for quick installation. Combined with the main control board controlling the drive motor, this enables real-time monitoring and precise adjustment of the equatorial mount's angle.

Benefits of technology

It enables the equatorial mount to identify its position and adjust its angle in the event of a power outage, ensuring the continuity and accuracy of observation missions and improving the ease of operation and shooting experience of the equipment in dark environments.
