Bringing the Visible Universe into Focus with Robo-AO
Christoph Baranec, Reed Riddle, Nicholas M. Law +13
Light from astronomical objects must travel through the earth's turbulent atmosphere before it can be imaged by ground-based telescopes. To enable direct imaging at maximum theoret…
The Robo-AO software: Fully autonomous operation of a laser guide star adaptive optics and science system
Reed L. Riddle, Mahesh P. Burse, Nicholas M. Law +8
Robo-AO is the first astronomical laser guide star adaptive optics (AO) system designed to operate completely independent of human supervision. A single computer commands the AO sy…
Robo-AO: An Autonomous Laser Adaptive Optics and Science System
Christoph Baranec, Reed Riddle, A. N. Ramaprakash +15
Robo-AO, a fully autonomous, laser guide star adaptive optics and science system, is being commissioned at Palomar Observatory's 60-inch telescope. Here we discuss the instrument,…
Robo-AO: autonomous and replicable laser-adaptive-optics and science system
C. Baranec, R. Riddle, A. N. Ramaprakash +11
We have created a new autonomous laser-guide-star adaptive-optics (AO) instrument on the 60-inch (1.5-m) telescope at Palomar Observatory called Robo-AO. The instrument enables dif…
