Orion 5969 StarSeek Wi-Fi Telescope Control Module, Serial/USB
Exploring the universe with a computer-controlled GoTo telescope just got a whole lot cooler! Because now you can drive the telescope wirelessly right from your Apple iPhone or iPod Touch! All you need is the Orion StarSeek astronomy app (available exclusively by download from the iTunes App Store) and the StarSeek Wi-Fi Telescope Control Module. The StarSeek Wi-Fi module works by creating its own local wireless network, leveraging the Wi-Fi capability built into the iPhone and iPod Touch. When coupled to the serial port on your telescope's GoTo mount, StarSeek Wi-Fi converts the Wi-Fi signal from the mobile device into serial commands used by the mount to drive the telescope automatically to any of 19,000+ celestial objects in the StarSeek app's database. StarSeek works with all Orion motor-driven GoTo telescopes, including the Atlas EQ-G, Sirius EQ-G, and StarSeeker lines, as well as with most other GoTo telescope brands.
