The Telescope Encoder and Sky Sensor (TESS-W) is the first model of TESS photometers, compact devices to monitor sky brightness every night developed under Stars4All project.
TESS-W photometer sending data today
- Designed by astronomers and calibrated on LICA laboratory at Universidad Complutense de Madrid the quality of the data is scientifically accurate.

- TESS photometer is mounted on a weatherproof enclosure (83x60x32 mm). Wherever there is electricity and WIFI you can install it and get the measures online trough the remote observatory.
- Its temperature and IR sensor will let you know whether the sky is clear or cloudy.
