Laminar is the first native macOS planetary and solar imaging capture app built for Apple Silicon
Laminar is the first native macOS planetary and solar imaging capture app built for Apple Silicon. Record high-framerate video of planets, the Moon, and the Sun through your telescope — no Windows, no virtual machines, no compromises. Built for the proven workflow: capture thousands of frames as raw SER video, then stack the sharpest in AutoStakkert, Registax, PIPP, or SIRIL. Laminar handles capture. CALIBRATION Apply dark, flat, and hot pixel correction to your live preview and, optionally, your recorded files. Build masters with guided capture wizards or import existing FITS, TIFF, PNG, and SER masters; a per-camera library auto-matches the right one. CUSTOM ROI & SOLAR SCANNING Draw a region of interest right on the live preview — drag it, resize with handles, or type exact pixel dimensions. Narrow horizontal strips drive spectroheliograph (SHG / Sol'Ex) scanning, reading a thin sensor slice at very high frame rates. Save any region as a reusable preset. CAMERA SUPPORT Laminar supports USB-connected astronomy cameras from 10 brands via direct SDK integration: Production (fully tested): ZWO ASI — all ARM64 USB models (SDK v1.41) PlayerOne — all models ToupTek Astro and OEM partners — Altair Astro, OGMA, RisingCam, MallinCam, Omegon SVBONY — SV305, SV505C, SV705C, SV605, SV905C Beta (shipping with active validation): QHY — QHY5III planetary series, QHY268, QHY600, QHY533, QHY294 Plus USB Video Class (UVC) webcams via AVFoundation, and iPhone or iPad via Continuity Camera — for afocal capture through an eyepiece adapter (Beta). Not compatible: ZWO Air cameras (ASI585MC Air, etc.) and ASIAir controllers are WiFi-only and cannot connect — use the ASIAIR app or ASIStudio. The non-Air versions of those sensors (ASI585MC, ASI662MC, ASI678MC) are fully supported. Camera controls adapt automatically — exposure, gain, white balance, cooler, USB bandwidth, and high-speed mode appear only when your camera supports them. REAL-TIME QUALITY ANALYSIS Every 4th frame is scored using Laplacian variance — the same focus metric used by stacking software. A live graph shows instantaneous quality, rolling average, and session peak so you can time captures to steady seeing. TARGET-AWARE CAPTURE Select from 10 imaging targets. Each configures rotation-safe capture limits — Jupiter gets a 60-second window before rotation smears detail, Saturn allows 120 seconds. A traffic-light indicator warns if your capture runs too long. AUTO FOCUS TRACKING Planets: brightness-weighted centroid tracking follows the target as it drifts. Moon and Sun: GPU-accelerated template matching locks onto a crater, sunspot, or terminator feature you select. SKY QUALITY SCORE Two scores (Conditions and Seeing, 0–100) from cloud cover, humidity, wind, seeing, and transparency via Open-Meteo and 7Timer. METAL GPU PREVIEW Bayer demosaicing runs on Metal compute shaders at 10–50x CPU speed. Live preview runs at your display's refresh rate — 60Hz, higher on ProMotion. Toggle between full-color and raw grayscale for fine focus. CAPTURE-FIRST ARCHITECTURE The camera-to-disk path runs independently of the interface. Under thermal throttling — common in long solar sessions — the preview slows before a recorded frame is dropped. Your SER file keeps writing at full sensor speed. ALSO INCLUDES Live RGB histogram with per-channel clipping detection Camera-side white balance with per-channel control Moon phase, illumination, and rise/set times Sensor temperature monitoring with safety shutoff Dew risk alerts from temperature-dewpoint spread Frame drop detection for USB bandwidth issues SER file playback with full transport controls QuickLook plugin — preview SER files in Finder macOS notifications for capture events Diagnostic logging with one-tap export PRICING $34.99, one-time purchase. No subscription. All features included. REQUIREMENTS macOS 14.6 (Sonoma) or later. Apple Silicon Mac (M1+). A supported USB astronomy camera (see Camera Support above).
