Title: Pole searching algorithm for Wide-field all-sky image analyzing monitoring system
Keyword(s): Astrometry, Wide-field, All-sky
Pages: 220 -- 225

Abstract: Paper show how to find coordinates of the celestial pole. The algorithm is useful as the first hint for blind astrometry in order to help or speed up the process. The algorithm uses a principle of Hough transformation commonly used in computer vision.
