- Unistellar is a French manufacturer of computer-connected telescopes that allow non-professional skywatchers to observe astronomical objects at relatively low cost. The Enhanced Vision Telescope (eVscope) takes advantage of digital astrophotographic techniques developed by professional astronomers over the previous two decades. SETI Institute has partnered with Unistellar and will be able to send requests for information and notifications to users, and receive information about transient astronomical events. The telescope is a 114 mm (4.5 in)-diameter Prime focus reflector, focal length 450 mm. It projects its image onto a 4.8 mm × 3.6 mm (0.19 in × 0.14 in) CMOS color sensor with 1.3 million pixels. The image is transmitted to a small screen in an eyepiece also mounted on the telescope. An electronic connection to a computer (smartphone, pad, or laptop) is required to make astronomical observations from the telescope. The digital technology allows multiple images to be stacked while subtracting the noise component of the observation producing images of Messier objects and faint stars as dim as an apparent magnitude of 15 with consumer-grade equipment.
