Edit Reason: Embed both photos.

Initially I plan on four after my Proof of Concept is completed using one. I have my basic framework running on Debian. It uses Python to run ImageMagick using different parameters to detect meteor streaks. Typically I will have about 600 images each night in the initial phase (One 30 second exposure every minute for ten hours). Average processing time on my Debian machine is about 45 seconds per photo.
If that is successful, I plan to scale it up four times; as in four cameras; 16-20 PINE64s.
That's about a year in the future... First step... proof of concept. :-)
Oh... for those curious... Here is a sample input to my ImageMacick script. (I didn't take this - just a sample I found on the net.)

And here is the output. The meteor streak is pretty obvious.
