Abstract

A camera system has been constructed using the 188 x 244 element Charge Injection Device (CID) and a micro-programmable controller. The CID is used in a cooled direct imaging mode and controlled by a bit-slice sequencer. An LSI-ll computer with FORTH language is used. Results obtained with direct imaging, polarimetry and spectrograph work are presented.
