From the project

Raspberry Pi-5 Hat for Astrophotography

This repository is for a Raspberry Pi Hat that provides various hardware control functions for Astrophotography equipment.

Currently this repository only contains the KiCAD files, but I will add more photos and instructions to build your own as I progress.
