Splash screen of AstroDMx
Capture for Linux (Version 0.50.10)
I have been working on testing and some algorithms,
while Nicola has done all of the coding. Below is an 8 panel high
resolution mosaic of the Moon captured with AstroDMx Capture for
Linux.
Everything has been captured under Mint, Xubuntu or
Fedora Linux. The lunar images were captured as 1000-frame SER
files at 1280 x 960 resolution using a ZWO ASI120 MC camera. The
capture was in 8 bit RAW and was debayered on the fly by AstroDMx
Capture for Linux.
The SER files were stacked (80% best images) in
Autostakkert! 2.6 running in Wine. The resulting images were
wavelet processed in Registax 5.1 in Wine and the 8 resulting
images were stitched using Microsoft ICE 1.4.4.0 running in Wine.
The final mosaic was post-processed in the Gimp 2.9 running
natively under Linux. The image is shown full size below.
Below are a sample of images captured by AstroDMx
Capture for Linux, using DMK, DFK and ZWO ASI120 MC and MM
cameras.
