panpancoucou

Sky Surveillance Network

panpancoucou is a network of automated stations that scan the sky 24/7. Each station detects, records and automatically identifies aerial objects (aircraft, satellites, ISS) to isolate truly unexplained phenomena.

Why multiple stations?

  • A single camera sees a dot of light. Two cameras can triangulate altitude, distance and true speed of an object.
  • An artefact (insect, reflection) only appears on one station. A real object shows up on several. More stations = fewer false positives.

What you need

  • A garden or rooftop with a clear view
  • A WiFi connection (DSL or fibre, speed doesn't matter)
  • An outdoor power outlet
  • Hardware budget: ~€230–280 (WiFi camera + mini-computer)

Coverage area

For now, the network is being deployed in:

  • Tarn and northern Toulouse
  • Southern Aveyron (Rodez area)

I travel to install and configure each station. No specialist knowledge required!

Frequently asked questions

Project in testing phase

The network is still being fine-tuned. The first pilot installations need to be validated in the field before expanding deployment. Sign up to be contacted when the system is ready — no fixed timeline for now.
