I'm thinking about an IoT Polar Aligner. The main idea is to use a Raspberry Pi W with the camera module to find and detect the North Star and display it on the mobile phone. The final goal is to connect it with servos so that it can automatically align itself. Does anyone know of a similar open source project?

As always with these news it is still too early to draw conclusions: more analysis and tests are necessary.

I found this tutorial about how to use a raspberry pi to add a digital panel to old cars (canbus port needed)

It is a bad quality photo taken from a mobile. The circle that surrounds the moon is formed by the refraction of the moonlight when passing through ice crystals present in the atmosphere. At times surrounding the moon itself you can see a circular rainbow (they all are, but we see only half of the solar rainbow). This phenomenon is called a lunar halo.

Tonight, if the clouds allow me, I wanted to take pictures with my Skywatcher Star Adventurer mini. As I'm going to set up a small telescope (a Celestron C90) I need a very good alignment to the Polar so that I don't have any traces left. Tips to make an alignment as accurate as possible? Thank you

My first photo with a telescope. It is not a incredible shoot but I am very proud of it.

I have developed a project in #python to follow #RSS feeds and send an email with daily news. It is more an excuse to practice python, git and design patterns than a real project, but feel free to use it if you find it useful. Suggestions, opinions and feedback are welcome.

I have just created a new community in Lemmy about Generative AI like GPT or Midjourney. The subjects are diverse: from news to development

Since the last update, half of the times I open the app I see All posts but in my preferences I have set Subscribed. The rest of the times it woks fine.

I want to thanks one more time to the developers who are making this great app 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I really love it!

I have just installed the last version and it comes with some errors:

• I can't set NEW as default option for sort posts in config
• I can't see communities wich I am subscripted
• When I search the communities section is always empty
