UniStellar eVscope eQuinox Smart Telescope

UniStellar eVscope eQuinox Smart Telescope

with Enhanced Vision Technology and Autonomous Field Detection

This innovative smart telescope from UniStellar is a revolutionary step forward in telescope technology. The UniStellar eVscope eQuinox telescope is 100x more powerful than the typical telescope. UniStellar has equipped this Newtonian Reflector with proprietary Enhanced Vision technology to allow for live observations of faint objects, so the celestial details you'll uncover will rival even those seen through an eyepiece on a large aperture telescope.

The Enhanced Vision patented technology accumulates live light from faint objects like galaxies, nebulae, and comets, and these celestial objects are more visible, colorful, and detailed than ever before! There are certain conditions, such as heavy light pollution, certain moon phases, and cloudy weather, that may require the telescope to take some additional time, several seconds to a minute, before it can reveal the beautiful views of these faint objects.

UniStellar has designed the telescope system so that users can spend more time exploring the wonders of the night sky, rather than dedicating precious observation time setting up and calibrating. Once the easy setup is complete, the telescope will instantly recognize the objects in the field of view. It does this by analyzing the objects and comparing them to the coordinates database of tens of millions of stars. The eQuinox reflector will then automatically track and point to the viewer's delight. This telescope is extremely user-friendly while remaining incredibly accurate. This is accomplished through the Autonomous Field Detection software. This software also enables you to learn about the objects you are viewing.

If you live in an area with heavy light pollution, you know how important it is to have equipment that can overcome this obstacle. UniStellar has urban astronomers in mind and designed the eVscope eQuinox smart telescope with proprietary software that mitigates the impact of light pollution. So, views that would normally be obscured are now seen in crisp detail, even in inner-city environments. The technology utilized will identify background light and then filter and remove any unwanted light. With this feature, you can rest assured that this telescope will deliver the best possible image parameters and viewing results with better contrasts and colors.

Be Part of the Global Community

When purchasing this eQuinox smart telescope, you have the opportunity to become part of the Unistellar Network. This is the first global community for citizen astronomers. With every new user, you can become a scientist in your own backyard and contribute to important astronomy discussions by adding to Unistellar's powerful array of connected telescopes. Each connected telescope is capable of delivering valuable scientific observations that are analyzed and supported by Unistellar's partnership with the SETI Institute.

About the App

Some of the most spectacular celestial targets available are only an app download away. Once you have the Unistellar dedicated app, the eQuinox telescope will recommend targets and start observations within minutes. The app comes with a catalog of over 5,000 objects that you can learn about and identify. This will include objects that are ideal for viewing at your current location. You can even share the views that your eQuinox gathers in person or virtually! This telescope can connect to up to 10 devices.

This app is full of fantastic educational content and makes your viewing experience a breeze. This makes the eQuinox telescope an excellent choice for beginner astronomers looking to experience the technological aspect of telescope viewing with an easy learning curve. There are also manual controls available on the app for more advanced users looking for more control over their telescope and alt-azimuth mount.

Keeping the app up-to-date is important for unlocking new and improved features on the eQuinox. For instance, the app version 2.4 and above includes "Deep Dark Technology," which is an algorithm that more efficiently filters light pollution to provide richer, darker blacks and more contrast when used in urban and light-polluted environments!
