Raspberry Pi Project Skylight Tracks Aircraft in Real Time
1 min read
Skylight uses a Raspberry Pi 5, RTL-SDR Blog V4 antenna, and 1080p projector to decode ADS-B signals from aircraft and project real-time flight paths onto a ceiling. It displays plane model, destination, altitude, and distance with live sun, moon, stars, and ISS tracking. The system runs on open-source code and detects both airliners and helicopters. Paczek built it near San Francisco International Airport.
