The StellarMate OS is a bit of hybrid in this category, sporting a Linux base like the ASIAIR, but leaving it more accessible to the end user like with the Eagle. This open, powerful, but light operating system is what really makes the StellarMate line shine — as it allows the system to provide a high performance experience for just about any brand of camera, filter wheel, electronic focuser, mount, or other accessory that you may have, at a cost that is more accessible than some other open ecosystem options.
Elevating this experience is peace-of-mind you get buying a preconfigured option like the StellarMate X and Pro. This operating system comes packed with the software you need to find/center targets with your mount, autoguide for steady tracking, and image, meaning you can start capturing deep sky views right out of the box! These units can be controlled remotely in a number of ways, either in a remote desktop experience or an app, allowing you to pick the control system that works best for you. Both systems have all the ports you need to connect and communicate with your gear, but the Pro takes it a few steps further with extra USB ports, RCA plugs for dew heaters, GPS, DC power outputs, and more! When it comes to options to ‘do it all, for all hardware’ at a great price, it is hard to beat these two systems from Ikarus Technologies.
