I have been using an iPad and white t-shirt method but with a large Newtonian, the truth is that the iPad doesn’t even cover the full scope! This wireless panel is so easy to use, it’ll be a great addition.
It was build from a £5 clock, free broken PC monitor, £25 Adafruit Feather Express microcontroller, £8 LED strip and a few other cheap components! I went ahead and ordered some custom PCBs to make it all tidy but actually this could easily do the job on a piece of proto board!
It was a good project – thanks again to Dark Sky Geek for coming up with this design and making it available for us all to build!
