Remote Observatory for Variable Object Research (ROVOR)
  Observatories constructed solely for photometric monitoring make it possible to understand the temporal nature of objects over time scales that historically have been difficult to achieve. We report on one such observatory, the Remote Observatory for Variable Object Research (ROVOR) which was constructed to enable both long-term and rapid cadence observations of brighter objects. ROVOR is an 0.4m optical telescope located in central Utah and commissioned for scientific observations in 2008. Principle research has been monitoring blazars, x-ray binaries, AGN, and an occasional gamma-ray burst afterglow. We describe the observatory, the control system, and its unique roof.
