X-Y Guider
Several forms of X-Y Guiders are available.
The Guide-Acquire-Modules
(GAMs) are provided with X-Y stages ranging from a manually
moved guide probe to a remotely controlled (or by computer)
X-Y -Focus stage with position encoding.
Custom designed X-Y-Focus stages are also available such as
the very low profile system built for the University of Texas
Lunar ranging station. Typically, a X-Y stage is needed to
allow off axis guiding for long integrations (or exposures)
when performing direct imaging.
