Software description
HSPI is a software expecially designed for astronomical parallel imaging and sky surveys, team observations and learning sessions. HSPI offers to the astronomer the possibility to capture pictures from the CCD camera in a fast and intuitive way, keeping under control all the instrumentation in posses. HSPI can control the CCD camera, the mount, the focuser, the filter wheel and the dome from a single interface, and not only this: these features can be added on as many observatories and instrumentation you want. Each time a CCD camera is being connected to HSPI, a new window opens into the application, and on this window you can attach all the remnant instruments like the mount, the focuser etc.; HSPI can add as many cameras you want and do the first simple and basilary graphical operations in real time and simultaneously (like noise reduction, intensity dynamics, and RGB dynamics) and save the captured frames to be edited lately. HSPI is ASCOM and INDI compatible, so if you want to use particular setups like Linux computers connected with your instrumentation and control them from remote then HSPI is your choice! After a few clicks you can see the images coming from your cameras connected throught Internet or your LAN. It doen’t matter if your PC has Windows or Linux, HSPI is compatible with each one, and it permits to you to work on any operating system you want.
Features: Support for SER, FITS, JPG, BMP, TIFF, PNG files. Support for INDI and ASCOM cameras. Simultaneous capture from different devices. With a single application you can control multiple cameras, control exposure of all cameras independently and elaborate the frames in real time. An advanced aligning system permits alignment of tilted, misaligned and scaled pictures. Open source plugins: brightness/contrast controls, dark frames subtraction and field of view informations. Simple and fast plugin API: you can edit or add your custom plugin into HSPI easily using ADPA’s plugin SDK (C# knowledge needed). Simultaneous saving in 16bit*3 RGB FITS format or in Picture files. Easy and compact user interface. HSPI is cross-platform: it works with .NET Framework on windows, with Mono on Linux and MacOS.
