Abstract EN

The double station observation of the meteors by means of sensitive image intensifier technique started at the Ondrejov Observatory 10 years ago.

The sensitivity of such instrumentation allows detection of the meteors down to masses of fractions of gram.

Moreover, video technique provides us with a time resolution of the meteor events.

On the other side, the precision of the video data is lower in comparison with the photographic data.

We are introducing technological progress on the project—replacing of the S-VHS camcorders with gigabite, ethernet cameras and making the whole process of video observation automatic.
