Patented StarSense Sky Recognition Technology StarSense Explorer uses patented technology and your smartphone to determine exactly where the telescope is pointed in the night sky. A Lost in Space Algorithm (LISA) like the ones satellites use in orbit to correctly orient themselves helps the app match star patterns it detects overhead to its internal database. While other astronomy apps may claim that they can help you find objects they rely exclusively on the phones gyros and accelerometers which arent as accurate as LISA technology. No other app can accurately tell you when your target is visible in the eyepiece.

Slip clutches and geared slow motion controls in both axes help you move the telescope smoothly and zero in your target.
