These guys do come up with some cool gadgets
I first heard of 'SkyBox' in blog posts by Richard Wright, SB's Mac/iOS/Linux guy, and it was recently confirmed over Facebook by the SB team.
The 'big reveal' was at this year's NEAIC/NEAF. I'm hoping that Sky and Telescope covered it in their video interview with Steve Bisque (they post these on YouTube). Details are sketchy, but here's what I've gleaned so far:
* This little imaging box will free remote imagers from laptops, additional power supplies and unnecessary operating systems.
* A little Linux computer, powerful in a small package that doesn't draw a lot of power and running the SkyX Pro!
* Think of it as ASCOM / Indi in a tiny box, connecting a world of gadgets to the SkyX (e.g. Robofocus, Canon, and other bits and bobs - perhaps the entire X2 range???).
* An iPad running the SkyX (perhaps also an iPhone/Android?) will connect to an embedded copy of SkyX running on this small Linux box (of some description) and control your imaging run over WiFi.
* Yes, for now it appears to be running on a Raspberry PI (probably a no. 2). I hope they also sell just the software, for those of us already with PIs.
