Paper Abstract
The Teramo Normale Telescope (TNT) is a 0.72 m telescope operating at the INAF-Teramo since the 1994. At the end
of 2011, the whole system has been completely upgraded in order to improve the overall performance of the instrument
and to allow safe and full remote observations, without the need of local operators. The main results of this work is
setting up a reliable and modern system in a short while, and at the same time paving the way to further steps towards the
development of a fully robotic observatory. Starting by a general overview of the system we describe the most important
upgraded components and the possible next developments.
