SmartEye Final Design 3D Renders
October 01, 2023
We are thrilled to unveil the final 3D renders of SmartEye, showcasing the culmination of over two years of precise engineering and innovation by Pegasus Astro and the makers of SkySafari. Designed with cutting-edge technology in a compact 2-inch eyepiece form factor, SmartEye is packed with features that elevate visual observation.
At first glance, it may resemble a standard eyepiece, but inside lies the advanced Sony IMX533 color CMOS sensor, which captures stunningly detailed light from celestial objects. Leveraging live stacking technology, SmartEye projects a high-resolution, 90° apparent field-of-view display at the eyepiece, giving you a near real-time enhanced visual experience.
What sets SmartEye apart is its ability to transform even modest telescopes into powerful instruments, bringing faint objects into vivid detail that would otherwise be invisible through conventional optics.
These final 3D renders mark a major milestone in our journey, embodying the engineering precision and feature-rich design that make SmartEye a revolutionary tool for astronomers.
