Kermit the ORC
(Offner Relay Camera, that is)
Kermit is an infrared astronomical camera incorporating a state-of-the-art
Rockwell Hawaii 2 20482 detector, sensitive from 0.8-2.5 microns.
The all-reflecting Offer Relay optics are optimized for very low scattered
light, suitable for companion searches close to bright stars. The
large-format detector enables very high resolution sampling without sacrificing
field of view; Kermit will have a plate scale of 15 milliarcseconds per pixel
at AEOS, providing very well sampled measurements of the AO point spread
function.

This paper describes the design and construction of the camera, and
presents initial results of its first light observing run at AEOS in
April 2003.
