# Hardware
Setup with various hardware.
Make sure you're in groups that may be needed:
Specs:
```
sudo adduser debian plugdev
sudo adduser debian video
```
* Sony IMX174 or similar.
* 50mm lens.
* f1.2 to f1.6 (faster the better).
* 10Hz image sampling.
* USB-3 (or ethernet?).
## ASI ZWO ASI183MC Pro.
For permanent mounts, considerations:
Download SDK from ASI. It is under a permissive license,
for the binaries, but where is the source?
It appears it is proprietary software. There are libre
implementations, such as for INDI.
* IP-66 or better.
* PoE?
* 12V.
* Raspberry Pi, Intel NUC, Traverse Ten64.
* Hardware shutter during sunlight (?).
Proprietary examples with IMX174:
* QHYCCD QHY174GPS.
* ZWO ASI174MM.

## Libre
Trying to find libre setup that can be used.
```
tar xf ASI_linux_mac_SDK_V1.26.tar.bz2
cd ASI_linux_mac_SDK_V1.26/
# Set up permissions with udev:
cat lib/asi.rules | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/50-asi.rules
```
## Proprietary
The ASI ZWO and QHY cameras use a proprietary SDK.
There are no libre implementations found.

Testing with Logitech BRIO usb web cam. No udev configuration needed.
Camera runs with `stvid` but isn't sensitive enough to be used.
