DVTI Camera Wiki
Project overview
The goal of the DVTI camera project is to develop a digital video camera targeted mainly at observing star occultations, with the following attributes:
- precise GPS timestamp from integrated GPS receiver module
- highly sensitive monochrome image sensor
- continuous improvement of hard- and software through feedback from the community
- price as low as possible
The development team consists of Stefan Meister and Andreas Schweizer.?
To reach the goal of a low price, we plan to initiate a Kickstarter campain later in 2019 so that components can be manufactured and bought at reasonable prices. In addition, as we develop the camera in our spare time, the time for R&D won't add to the camera price.
More information is available in...

- the XXXVIII ,
- the XL presentation slides from Aug 2021,
- and the XLI at 2:25:00.
