This instrument is not only a telescope, but also an advanced digital camera which uses artificial intelligence to deliver superior quality images.
Here is the Xiaomi telescope equipped with AI: all the functions
The heart of the Dangdangli TW2 is a telephoto lens with a focal length of 500mm. The telescope camera is equipped with a 1/1,8" optical format image sensor, capable of recording video in resolution 4K. The lenses, treated with a special coating, increase light transmission and reduce reflections, ensuring extraordinarily clear and sharp images.
The viewing experience is further enhanced by a viewfinder with screen from 5 inches and 720p resolution, equipped with a rotation mechanism for optimal viewing. The power supply is ensured by a battery from 6000 mAh, which allows prolonged use without worries.

One of the most fascinating features of the Dangdangli TW2 is the integration of artificial intelligence. Advanced algorithms improve image quality captured, making sky observation a unique experience. To optimize the use of the telescope, Xiaomi has developed theDangdangli mobile application, which offers a wealth of useful astronomy information and practical tips. A sort of Xiaomi Home but dedicated to this singular tool.
During the crowdfunding phase on Xiaomi Youpin, the Dangdangli TW2 is offered at the price of 1.499 yuan, equivalent to approximately 200 €. Official sales will begin on July 14, 2024, making this smart telescope accessible to all astronomy enthusiasts. Clearly, we do not know if and when this new Xiaomi product will arrive in Italy and Europe. However, one thing is certain: it will be this instrument that will inspire the next generation of professional astronomers.
