to simply install your smartphone on the ultra portable star tracker from Move
Shoot Move. Add a digital window into the sky to your Nomad and simplify your
Milky Way picture process with the Move Shoot Move Nomad Phone Adapter Kit!

When you need to align your Move Shoot Move Nomad star tracker, this kit has
you covered! With modern mobile device’s advanced sensor suites, there are a
number of incredible apps that can identify what is in the section of the
night sky your smartphone is pointed at. This kit allows you to harness this
advanced look into the night sky, attaching your mobile planetarium to the
Nomad and identifying its current pointing. With this you can adjust the Move
Shoot Move star tracker’s alignment with the simple graphical guides afforded
by modern mobile apps! This method is excellent for those looking for a more
guided polar alignment procedure, or those aligning in places where the
alignment star(s) are not visible due to tree lines, tall buildings,
mountains, and other large obstructions. The adapter kit can be combined with
Move Shoot Move’s other alignment accessories such as the Calibrated Pointer
and Polar Scope, allowing you to add alignment versatility to your portable
Milky Way mount!

Polar Alignment With Your Nomad and Phone Adapter Kit

Lining up your Move Shoot Move Nomad with the Nomad Phone Adapter Kit and a
smartphone is simple! First begin with your smartphone and digital planetarium
app; ensuring you are using an app with ‘compass mode’, or similar feature
that can identify what portion of the sky your phone is looking at and what is
there. Turn on this feature, and follow any calibration steps necessary. Once
your smartphone is calibrated, insert it into the Nomad Smart Phone Adapter
and secure it in the clamp. Loosen the adjustment knob on the Smart Phone
Adapter, and adjust your smartphone so that it is flat with the back of
(parallel to) the Nomad. Tighten the adjustment knob back down. Now adjust the
Nomad until your mobile planetarium app shows the alignment point for your
hemisphere in the center; in the sky over the alignment point for your
hemisphere; for the Northern hemisphere this is simply Polaris, in the
Southern hemisphere this is a point between the Octant and Southern Cross.
Lock your Nomad in place, and you’re now ready to begin imaging!

Simple Polar Alignment
Whether you are looking for a
more graphically guided alignment solution, or if you need assistance in
spaces where your alignment star or stars are obscured, modern smartphone
technology and this kit can help! This will put your phone in line with the
Move Shoot Move Nomad, allowing you to put your ultra portable star tracker
in step with the stars. This system assists you in quickly identifying the
stars above and guiding your alignment in place — even in environments
where these stars may not be visible!

Simple Installation
Adding a digital planetarium to
your Nomad is easy! Just remove the threaded red dimple or Move Shoot Move
Calibrated Laser from the back of your Nomad, place the adapter plate on the
back of the unit such that the top and side guardrails touch the housing,
and then thread the dimple cap or laser back in place. You can now slide the
phone adapter into the adapter plate’s shoe, and secure with the plastic
thumbscrew. In addition to compatibility with the
Move Shoot Move Calibrated Pointer, the adapter plate provides an attachment point for the
Move Shoot Move Polar Scope (both sold separately), ensuring you have options when it comes to your alignment process!

Wide Compatibility and Premium Construction
This kit
is compatible with smartphones 2.36″ to 3.66″, supporting a wide range of
mobile devices on the market today! Holding your device securely in place is
a robust aluminum clamp with rubberized bumpers to firmly grip your
smartphone while protecting the finish. Once installed, a simple manually
adjustable knob unlocks a wide range of motion that makes aligning your
device with the Move Shoot Move Nomad easy. Both the bracket and the Nomad
adapter plate are also made of solid anodized aluminum, giving your
smartphone a rigid and durable connection to the Move Shoot Move Nomad!
