Popis: | We have implemented a real-time remotely astronomical observation in Egypt. Now that a remote observer would be able to access our 14-inch astronomical telescope (CGE 1400), a dome enclosure, a CCD detector, and various scientific instruments. It is based on a developed integrated system, with a graphical user interface, making use of a TCP/IP protocol. Our platform is more affordable, robust, and applicable for other observatories, even for not computerized systems. Further, neither commercial kits nor software are used. The utilized communication protocol is basically based on row packets to achieve convenient speed in data transfer. We provide a comparison with current commercial systems and previous research in this trend. |
