How to Use the Vivid Vision Technology?

Follow

In just 2 minutes, our telescopes can reveal the colorful nuances of 300,000 stars in the Hercules Cluster and bring to life the richly hued gas clouds of the Trifid Nebula, showcasing their true chemical composition.

You can learn more about the Vivid Vision Technology in the following article: What Is the Vivid Vision Technology?

Important: the Vivid Vision Technology is only available on newer telescopes that have the processing power to support these enhancements (eQuinox 2, eVscope 2, Odyssey and Odyssey Pro).

 

Once a go-to is successful and the Enhanced Vision is activated (How to Use Enhanced Vision? (Dynamic Signal Amplification)), the Vivid Vision Technology algorithms will automatically start to be applied to your capture after around 2–3 minutes. A colorful button will appear to indicate that Vivid Vision Technology is active and enabled.

The Vivid Vision Technology will improve the image continuously until you stop Enhanced Vision (Dynamic Signal Amplification). At any time during your observation, you can turn off the Vivid Vision Technology by pressing the button

Lagoon Nebula - Vivid Vision Technology OFF. 

If you want to activate the Vivid Vision Technology again, just tap the button once again.

You can save your images with or without Vivid Vision Technology activated at any time of your observation (How to Save Your Capture?).

Note: Vivid Vision Technology only applies to stars, star clusters, nebulae and galaxies. It doesn't apply to the Sun, Moon and planets supported by the Enhanced Vision for planets mode.

Note: Vivid Vision Technology does not apply to RAW files.
