on behalf of a larger collaboration report:
The 2-m Faulkes Telescope North automatically began observing INTEGRAL
GRB 140320B on March 20 at 09:31:27 UT (~4.6 min after the burst trigger).
We find a fading uncatalogued object at coordinates
RA(2000.0)= 09:42:14.17
Dec(2000.0)= +60:16:05.7 (error 1.0")
with i=19.7 +- 0.1 mag at 16 minutes after the GRB,
calibrated against nearby SDSS-I stars.
