الوصف: | The effect of atmospheric turbulence is gentler at infrared wavelengths than in visible regime. Hence adaptive optics (AO) delivers better performance in the infrared regime. Robotic Adaptive Optics (Robo-AO) is an AO system for medium-sized telescopes jointly built by Caltech, USA and IUCAA, India. It works with minimal overheads and provides good sky coverage in both visible and infrared regime. The first version of Robo-AO does not have a high-quality NIR camera. For the second version called iRobo-AO, an NIR camera was developed at IUCAA to accommodate AO-corrected $$1.0^{\prime }$$ field-of-view in near-infrared bands. It can be used as a science camera as well as a tip-tilt camera. Here we describe the salient features of the NIR camera like optics, optomechanical design, detector control system etc. |
