Description
The Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA), acting as the operator of the Gemini Observatory, is seeking a vendor to provide the EPICS software for the Adaptive Optics Module (AOM) of the Gemini South Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics system. The Adaptive Optics Module includes all of the optics, sensors and electronics needed to compensate the input f/16 science beam and relay it to a science instrument at f/33. The AOM software will be responsible for managing all of the opto-mechanical devices (~30) associated with the AOM except the Deformable Mirrors (DMs), the TipTilt Mirror (TTM) and the readout of the wavefront sensors. The software will be installed into a VME standard computer running VxWorks and EPICS and provided by AURA. The full requirements for this procurement, and instructions for submitting a proposal, will be given in a Request for Proposal to be released in the near future. Firms that are interested in receiving this Request for Proposal should email a letter of interest to Andrew Flach at aflach@gemini.edu by no later than May 10, 2004. This letter of interest should reference RFP N240668 in the subject line and give the name, address, email address, phone number, and fax number of a contact person at your firm.
