Does anyone know if Starry Night (any of the flavours) support fisheye projections, as in for projection into planetariums with a fisheye data projector?...
Hello Paul and others, ... Starry night does support fisheye projection but this version is commercialy linked with Starlab fisheye projection system. I heard...
Yes, Starlab currently has exclusive rights to Starry Night Small Dome, Spitz has the rights to Large dome. These exclusive contracts could expire within a...
Starry Night does come in a full-dome version. It is the basis for our SciDome HB projector. As far as I know, all of the Spitz SciDomes use Starry Night. I...
Hi Paul and others, The Digital Starlab uses a special version of Starry Night called "Starry Night Small Dome." The "Small Dome" version does not have all of...
... Actually, Starry Night is what the Spitz SciDome runs. It is an adaption, of course, for planetarium. I'd guess they had the rights to that version for...
... I would have thought my key suggestion would be obvious. :-) The mesh warping as in The Bisque software works great. It is also extremely general, for...
Hi all, ... This would be a great opportunity for "Starry Night" lovers. ... I would be really interested to know more about your opinion, what you prefer in...
Hi, see *** responses... After rereading my responses: NOTE, I do not work for Starry Night. I have used both SN and stellarium/nightshade and have had an...
Hey Paul, I assume you're referring to spherical mirror projection, right?! Is that mesh warping also available in Starry Night? Just curious... I wouldn't...
Hi "Starlab Stuff," A correction: Spitz sells single fisheye lens systems with a 1600 pixel diameter circle. That SciDome Standard system uses the same...
... *** My comments are directed at the software in question. I have no love for a starlab over your company's products in terms of optical quality, service,...
A few final comments: I have never seen Starlab or Spitz use a remote control to run Starry Night, and I go to a lot of conferences every year, including the...
... I'm curious about these statements. Have you tried using desktop Nightshade's record function for scripting? It allows you to execute a series of...
Karrie, I am not an idiot, I have seen/used many systems. I can tell the difference between mac remotes, projector remotes, and full function programmable...
... What are the areas that you have to "push" Nightshade in order to reach the 90% parity? Constructive comments (rather than vague, "it's too hard"...
Hi "Starlab Stuff," I wasn't trying to imply that you were an idiot--sorry you took it that way. I read your comment in your reply to Lionel that you had seen...
Hi Group, We're looking to purchase an inflatable dome for mobile planetarium shows. I see a variety of types used on the database but I wasn't having much...
... Certainly the single zipper up the side and the airlock approach are the most common inflatables. I agree they are less than ideal not just for the...
Hi! thanks for the question. Actually we've had our Go-Domes outside many times, preferably in nice weather, not too windy or hot, or rainy - we have outdoor...
Hi Phil From my own experience here in the UK, I can heartily recommend Stargazer Planetarium domes, created originally by Ray Worthy but now further developed...
Hi Phil, You could easily fit six students in wheelchairs in any of our domes, even the smallest diameter (4m). We simply raise the side of the dome for...
... For anyone with an inflatables, variable fan speed is critical, it is an easy addition of a variac controller to any system, just sits on the power lead...
To Phil regarding inflatable dome issues. I too have just gotten into this area with the acquisition of an old but usable 16' dome. About the "airlock" on...
I would think that no brand of portable dome should be used outdoors unless it is designed to do so. Even a slight breeze or gust could send the dome over....
Hi: Have you considered www.bs-astro.com domes? They are light and cheap. I feel their quality is very good, although more expensive domes could be a best...
Well, actually, with a dome like Go-Dome with the doorways that don't lose a lot of air when folks enter and exit, I don't find a fan speed controller that...
At Cosmodome we continue to support Go-domes - we were their first Distributor and continue to be so, although we have been tempted with much cheaper,...
Admittedly, our offerings likely have the highest price tag in the portable realm. With that said, our OpenDome Theater inflatables have a fully open...
