Abstract
- International audience; The FRIPON network (Fireball Recovery and Interplanetary observation Network) will be fully operational in 2016 (www.fripon.org). This "open source" project includes several new features that will be described in detail. We also discuss the opportunities for expansion outside France. The main innovation is the connectivity of cameras enabling better efficiency for meteors detection, and the possibility of computing orbits in real time to organize an observation campaign within 24 hours. Another innovation is the ability to daytime detections. Statistics show that there are more meteorites in late afternoon than during the rest of the day because of their low speed. As the project has been designed from the start to handle a large number of cameras it is easy to extend it to increase its effectiveness. I will show the next extension of the network and its operation.
