DWARF mini Smart Telescope

The whole sky. 840 grams.

A precision astro camera, an automatic tracking mount, and an intelligent control system in a body that weighs just 840g. Point, shoot, and the universe is yours.

Fits in a daypack. Reaches deep space.

At 840g the DWARF mini is the lightest smart telescope made. It rides in a camera bag and sets up on any flat surface. Backyard, lakeside, or a dark-sky site two hours from town, it goes wherever the clear weather is.

This is not a simplified telescope. It is a whole new way to explore the universe.

Set up in minutes

From bag to first image in three minutes.

Power on, connect your phone, pick a target. The mount finds north, focuses, and locks on by itself. There is no polar scope to align and no star charts to learn before you shoot.

Automatic GoTo

It finds the target, then keeps it.

Tap an object and the DWARF mini slews to it, focuses with precision autofocus, and tracks it across the sky. Plate-solving checks its own aim against the real star field, so framing stays accurate all session.

Equatorial mode

90-second frames with round stars.

Switch to EQ mode and the mount compensates for Earth's rotation. You get longer single exposures with no trailing and no cropping, which means cleaner signal on faint nebulae and galaxies.

Built-in triple filter

Cut city glow without bolting on glass.

An internal wheel carries a dark-frame filter, a 430–690 nm astro filter, and a dual-narrowband Hα / O III filter. The narrowband filter pulls nebula detail out of moonlit and light-polluted skies.

360° free rotation

Frame any angle you like.

The lens barrel turns 225° and the gimbal rotates a full 360° without stops. Compose by hand, in the app, or with the on-screen joystick, and track a target from any perspective you choose.

One-click processing

A finished image in about three seconds.

Stellar Studio runs inside the app. It corrects star points, removes noise, and lifts nebula detail with a single tap. No laptop and no paid software needed to share a clean result.

Imaging precision

A Sony IMX662 at the heart of it.

The 1/2.8-inch IMX662 sensor uses large 2.9μm pixels to gather light cleanly with low noise. RAW capture preserves every bit of detail for editing, so faint deep-sky structure survives the stretch from data to finished photo.

Pocket the universe

The cosmos, finally within reach.

The Milky Way, the Moon, the Sun, star trails, and deep-sky nebulae. One small instrument, a different target every clear night.

Dual camera aiming

Two lenses. Find fast, frame tight.

A wide-angle lens locks on targets quickly and captures the Milky Way and star trails. The telephoto lens then takes over: a 30mm f/5 optic with six apochromatic elements and 1,016mm full-frame equivalent reach for sharp, close detail.

Shoot while you sleep

Set the target and walk away.

Schedule a session and let it run unattended. The mini collects and stacks frames on its own, so you can wake up to a finished image of Andromeda already sitting in the gallery.

Multi-night Super Stack

Build one image across many nights.

The mini merges exposures gathered on different nights into a single deeper result. Every clear evening adds signal, so a faint galaxy keeps improving over a week instead of one short session.

Calibration frames

Dark, bias, and flat fields, handled.

Capture proper calibration frames in the app to remove sensor noise, vignetting, and dust shadows. This is the step that takes a shot from captured to captured correctly, and the mini automates it.

Frame-by-frame review

Keep the good frames, drop the rest.

Wind gusts and passing cloud spoil the odd frame. Review each one and remove it before stacking, so only clean, well-aligned data makes it into the final image.

Photos that stand out

Catch the rare moments too.

The mini handles far more than nebulae. Shoot ISS transits across the Sun and Moon, solar and lunar eclipses, and stitch wide-field mosaics that reach well beyond a single frame.

Pro export

Take the RAW data as far as you like.

Beginners get a finished image in the app. Experienced imagers can export RAW files to Photoshop, Siril, or PixInsight for full manual control. The mini grows with your skills rather than capping them.

A new universe, every night

Made to explore, and to share.

A different target every night

Never a one-trick instrument.

The Milky Way, the Sun, the Moon, star trails, and deep-sky nebulae are all within reach. Each clear night is a new subject, so the mini stays interesting long after the first image.

Your signature in the sky

Sign your work before you share.

Add a personal watermark and caption to every image straight from the app. Post a finished shot to social media with a tag that is unmistakably yours.

Image as a team

Build a bigger sky together.

Team up with friends or a local astronomy group to piece together a vast deep-sky mosaic. Several minis can contribute frames to one shared, larger image.

Earn your badges

Track your progress as you go.

Unlock collectible starry achievement badges as your skills grow, from Star Trails Explorer to Nebula Hunter and Milky Way Catcher. Share an achievement poster to mark each milestone.

Weighs just 840g, the lightest and most portable smart telescope available.

30mm f/5 telephoto with 1,016mm full-frame equivalent reach and six apochromatic elements.

Sony IMX662 sensor with 2.9μm pixels and RAW capture for low-noise detail.

Equatorial mode enables 90-second exposures with no star trailing.

Built-in triple filter, including a dual-narrowband Hα / O III filter for light-polluted skies.

7000mAh battery for around four hours, 64GB onboard storage, and dual-band Wi-Fi.

Automatic GoTo, autofocus, and plate-solving track and frame targets for you.

Also doubles as a daytime instrument for birdwatching, wildlife, and scenic viewing.
