STARSENSE AUTOALIGN IN SKYPORTAL APP We've added our StarSense AutoAlign technology to the SkyPortal app, making SkyPortal the most advanced telescope control app offe red. StarSense not only automatically aligns itself from your smartdevice, it also has advanced mount modelling, allowing you ente r up to 10 alignment points for the most precision pointing accuracy possible. Even the most advanced telescope users will love us ing StarSense AutoAlign through the app. This affordable accessory replaces the expensive software usually used for advanced mount modeling. With built-in mount modeling, you'll get superior pointing accuracy from horizon to horizon. When your alignment needs to be perfe ct, add up to 10 additional calibration stars to achieve a new level of accuracy, great for locating objects in the camera's field of view for astroimaging.
