Sharpens stars independently! Is AstroSharp still FREE!? (Not the most current version) @deepskydetail

Uploaded November 2023 | Updated September 2026, 1 hour ago

I've made a free AI sharpening tool as an alternative to paid software. In this video, I describe how to sharpen stars and deep sky objects separately!

The online version is now available: deepskydetail.shinyapps.io/AstroSharp

Useful links:
AstroSharp Dual PSF: github.com/deepskydetail/AstroSharp

For Mac and Linux Users:
R Download: cloud.r-project.org
RStudio Download: posit.co/download/rstudio-desktop

Code for Mac and Linux Users at End:
install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("bips-hb/neuralnet")

For those interested, here is the gear I use (or equivalent; Orion has discontinued some of their products, so the equivalent skywatcher products are listed). Most of the links are Amazon Affiliate links. Thanks!
Skywatcher HEQ5 Mount amzn.to/3NVrVQi
Skywatcher 80mm F7.5 Doublet amzn.to/47mbfZi
ZWO EFW mini filter wheel amzn.to/48OxhoN
