Our project uses SBIG ST – 7E CCD (765 * 510) camera to take images of the objects viewed. The CCD camera attached to the telescope eye piece is connected to the server using the parallel port. The camera is controlled using the web based server program developed by us. This program is embedded with the web interface so that the user can give the commands necessary via internet. The user can select a desired exposure time and take the image. The image can be downloaded in .ST7 format. So he will require CCDOPS software installed in his client machine to view it. This software can be downloaded for free.
