Abstract

An attempt is made to look at video astronomy as it may be in future years. Topics explored are migration to all digital systems leaving the old analog video signal to history, three dimensional video astronomy, tablets replacing lap-top computers in the field, and a possible significant increase in the number of video telescopes as light pollution continues grow.
