Mobile Setup

On the road again... Actually this setup is not quite so portable and has now been installed for testing only a couple of meters away from the base (the dome) but anyway this new platform seems to work fine after solving some minor hardware and networking issues. The imaging system and mount are fully remote controlled (via WLAN or wired network cable) and basically needs only power to run everything (just one 220V AC cable for connection to the mains).
