Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Allemand)

Forefront science requires spectroscopic information of millions of stars and galaxies. To reach this goal, we will develop a cell of high-density robots capable of positioning optical fibers on the focal plane of a telescope within a few microns of positional accuracy. The cell consists of 19 fiber positioners, each capable of accurately following a collision-free path through their integrated electronics and software.
