| Description | Bright variable stars became neglected in the epoch of CCD cameras. In addition, in most surveys bright stars are not measurable, apart from specialized projects like BRITE and SMEI. In this poster we present an inexpensive solution to observing bright variable stars accessible to students, small observatories and amateur astronomers. We also present some results. |
