Mobile Observation of Meteors (MoMET): a device dedicated to meteor shower outburst

Abstract

The MoMET project aims to observe meteor shower outbursts by setting up two mobile stations. In order to make the most of such endeavour, two suitcases were developed, each containing 2 wide FOV cameras for $ZHR$ determination, and 3 narrow FOV cameras for orbit measurement and spectroscopy. The RMS software for acquisition and detection was installed on Odroid XU4Q mini-computers running Ubuntu. A user interface allows to control each camera and a GPS to set the time and location.
