Abstract

A differential image motion monitor (DIMM) has been developed and manufactured to study atmospheric seeing. The monitor is made in a lightweight field version and can operate without a telescope, as has always been the case before. Two apertures are made using 70-mm lenses with a focal distance of 900 mm. The distance between the aperture axes is 300 mm. The images from the apertures are combined in the plane of a single CMOS camera operating at up to 314 frames per second speed with low reading noise of about 3e^-. The device also includes a 3^\!\!3^ field of view viewer for pointing at a star. The monitor proved to work successfully during several astroclimate study expeditions. The monitor data were verified by comparing them with the results of atmospheric seeing measurements at the 2. 5 meter telescope of the Caucasian Mountain Observatory.
