The DWARF 3 smart telescope is equipped with a Sony IMX678 sensor, a member of Sony’s STARVIS 2 series, designed for superior low-light performance. With larger 2µm pixels, this sensor enhances sensitivity and noise reduction, making it especially well-suited for astrophotography in low-light conditions. The IMX678 sensor delivers an 8.3-megapixel resolution (3840×2160), ensuring high-quality, detailed images of celestial objects.
Integrating AI-powered features, the DWARF 3 offers automatic star-finding, precise object tracking, and real-time image stacking, significantly simplifying the astrophotography process. These intelligent systems reduce the need for manual adjustments, providing a seamless, hands-off imaging experience for users of all skill levels.
The telescope is controlled via a dedicated smartphone app, offering a user-friendly interface for image capture, processing, and sharing. This intuitive control system streamlines the astrophotography workflow, making the DWARF 3 an accessible option for both beginners and experienced astroimagers.
For extended use, the DWARF 3 features an internal rechargeable battery with USB-C compatibility, ensuring uninterrupted operation during prolonged observation sessions. Combining cutting-edge sensor technology, AI-driven automation, and ease of use, the DWATRF 3 smart telescope is a powerful tool for capturing stunning images of the night sky.
