Astrosite Telescope Demonstration

When

Saturday 7 December from 1pm to 8:30pm

Astronomers from Western Sydney University (WSU) will demonstrate Astrosite, an innovative telescope addressing the problem of space debris at Sydney Observatory.

Developed by WSU’s International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems, Astrosite uses biologically inspired event-based cameras – cameras that function like the eye and brain to overcome the limitations of exposure times and saturation – to capture objects in space with unprecedented resolution, and during the day in real time. Astronomers from WSU will be on-hand to demonstrate the technology, which represents a unique response to the problem of space debris.
