The Fly's Eye camera system is a multiple-passband full-sky surveying instrument employing
19 wide-field cameras in a mosaic arrangement on a spherical frame. The cameras equipped
with fast focal ratio lenses and Sloan filters. The cameras are supported by single
mount while the sidereal tracking, i.e. the compensation for the apparent celestial
rotation is performed by a hexapod mount. As discussed in our earlier design-related
publications, this tracking is unavoidable when considering 0:3 gigapixel imaging,
a field-of-view diameter of 120° and exposure times around a few minutes. With this
camera system we intend to perform time-domain astronomy and observe several kind
of astronomical phenomena based on variability.
