I have always thought that motor drives on the alt and azimuth axes combined with a built in camera on the RA axis (and appropriate software) would make for very good automatic and accurate polar alignment. You could push a button, go inside and pour a beer, and by the time you walked back outside you could have arcsecond accurate polar alignment.

Great idea !!
Long overdue in the design of quality mounts ( although you will have to pay a premium for such a luxury )
I’d be happy with just motorised Alt and Az bolts with fine threads , control box and USB port to control it from your laptop keyboard as most people use PA features in their capture software anyway
