17 January 2020: Decision was made to go with Andor Ixon 888 UVB and -AB AR coating for lenses. Decision swayed by the off-the-shelf Nikon lens which will be the limiting element for obtaining spectra/photometry below 400nm. -A coating not good > 750nm where other elements still perform well.

The software runs on an instrument PC, which hosts the camera driver software and connects to an Arduino for the moving parts. Additionally a filter mechanism may be controlled from here.
