Lumia 1020 with its super powerful 41 Megapixel camera now opens absolutely new opportunities and levels of functionality going towards a totally different and revolutionary direction! Particularly, it’s all about the new project called Ultrascope, which involves a 3D printable device which, when operating with Lumia 1020, enables the users to create a powerful and quite professional automated robotic observatory giving the users too chance to capture professional-grade celestial images from wherever you may like.
As James Parr, the creator of this device, notes,
“We’re inspired that we live in an era where consumer technology now allows us to do things that were only exclusively available to professionals just a few years ago. Keen amateur astronomers can now download this design and software, 3D print and assemble their own hardware, which is an amazing development. It opens up opportunities for people who have been gazing at the stars their whole lives, but haven’t, until now, been able to get involved. Powered by Lumia smartphones, our hope is that hundreds of Ultrascopes will be assembled, enabling a large number of people to contribute to new discoveries as they explore the night sky.”
So this is really great news and we are really excited to learn about the super innovative and stunning developments of Lumia Phones and especially the multiple directions they take.
