We take people on a journey through space

The origins of Vaonis

Our mission

Unveil the wonders of the invisible worlds

Here we are
In a swirl of adventure, riding comets through crisp lights
Into the roaring unknown, uncovering space’s mysteries
Feeling the pulse of the universe as it zooms past
Capturing a rush of impressions
Painting a picture of our journeys as they unfold

The company

Today, pictures are part of our lives: we use cameras, smartphones, drones, GoPros to capture every moment of our life… These technologies have changed the vision of the world for many people but nothing exists to incite future astronomers to explore the universe and share their discoveries and amazing experience of the night sky. Vaonis has responded with a game-changing telescope, compact, light, easy to install and app-connected.

Vaonis is a French company based in Montpellier, France, that designs and manufactures telescopes and accessories. The company was founded in 2016 by Cyril Dupuy, a young start-up entrepreneur, after obtaining his Bachelor in Optics and Aerospace. From his experience of using different telescopes with complex installation, long user guides and recurring breakdowns, he imagined and designed Stellina, the world’s first all-in-one telescope connected to a mobile app. Our products are designed and developed by specialists in optics, mechanics, electronics, material and ergonomics, giving special attention to its design, quality and safety.

Areas of expertise

Optics
The optical elements are made-to-measure in order to ensure the quality of our instruments. Special attention is given to the control and reliability of each piece.
Mechanics
Our experts have a high level of knowledge of the mechanics used in astronomical instruments. They work with three technical design companies to design products that meet the required level of quality.
Electronics

Performance, energy efficiency and reliability are essential in astronomy. Stellina’s electronics are designed in-house by our experts with the objective of offering the best user experience possible.

Software
Cumulating more than 40 years of experience in embedded systems, our engineers work to provide our customers with unique experiences. Creating reliable, fast and easy to use software is our priority.
