— DEEP DARK TECHNOLOGY
See the cosmos from the heart of the city
Astro image take from a light polluted area. Before and after Deep Dark Technology
The eQuinox 2 is an innovative smart telescope that brings the wonders of space within reach, even in brightly lit Australian cities and suburbs. Its Deep Dark Technology uses advanced image processing to filter out the effects of city lights, allowing for clear, high-resolution images of celestial objects. With the eQuinox 2, you can see the stunning blue and red hues of the Ring Nebula or the red spot of Jupiter, even from the heart of the Sydney or Melbourne CBD.
There's no real cure for the curse of light pollution apart from cutting down on wasteful outdoor lighting, but the Unistellar Deep Dark Technology does help minimise its impacts. You can read more about it here.
— ENHANCED VISION TECHNOLOGY
Discover the Deep Sky & the Solar System
Enhanced Vision Technology utilizes image stacking and live image processing techniques to provide a truly unique viewing experience of outer space.
By optimizing the images captured live by the telescope, this technology allows for unparalleled views of the cosmos.

— AUTONOMOUS FIELD DETECTION
Start observing within a few minutes
Enjoy the click-and-wow telescope : in just one minute, the eQuinox 2 is unpacked and at work, a minute later you could be observing the Southern Pinwheel galaxy or The Jewel Box Cluster in full color and detail.
Our Autonomous Field Detection technology allows it to quickly orient itself in the sky, even when only a few stars are visible. Using your smartphone’s GPS, it can locate itself on Earth and access its own database of millions of stars. With this technology, the telescope can spot stars that are not visible to the naked eye and compare their positions to its database to accurately determine its pointing location.
There's no need to worry about tricky polar alignment.
