True Hybrid Control

The ZEISS UNIVIEW Software Suite for Planetariums controls both the optical-mechanical and the digital projection system and enables the two to be precisely coupled. Astronomical processes such as the motions and object positioning of both the optical-mechanical and the digital planetarium are automatically synchronized. Transitions between earthbound astronomy and free flight through space are seamless (True Hybrid).
