Is that what an auto focuser will do for me?
Is that all I need to buy for an auto focus system (a HSM and a control box)?

I personally use a moonlight focuser with the motor drive and mini v2 controller which can be used in SGP and other programs such as APT (Which i use).
I'm not sure about the feathertouch HSM, but with the moonlight you can pretty much tell APT when to refocus (intervals in either subs or seconds).
Mind you, the cheapest alternative is to use a bahtinov mask and do it yourself every 10 subs if that's how you want to run it, which is what I did for over a year with no issues.
