This Project consists of developing and controlling a Small Radio Telescope (SRT) to support potential research in the field of radio-astronomy. The code provided generates a general user interface in which one can select a satelite of choice. Once connected, the radiotelescope will move to the chosen satelite.
- main.py
Contains the class SRTApp and the main loop. Calling on an instance of the class SRTApp generates a GUI with which a satelite can be chosen for the telescope to follow. - satelite.py
Contains the code that extracts and preprocesses the list of active satelites and their corresponig TLEs
In order to get the programm up and running some packages need to get installed:
- pyserial
this can be easily done by running the command: conda install -c anaconda pyserial
