System design and initial results of all sky imager at South Pole
We have developed an all-sky optical imager (ASI) which was installed at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station (SP) in the 1996-1997 austral summer season. ASI consists of a highly sensitive (monochromatic and panchromatic) optical lens, CCD camera, and a data-taking workstation. The ASI is equipped...
