Astrometry of directly imaged exoplanets with optical interferometry

Optical interferometry has always been seen as a promising but difficult technique for astronomy. Until the year 2018, it was excrucially limited in sensitivity to magnitudes below 10. However, thanks to the advent of the GRAVITY instrument, fringe tracking and dual field interferometry made it poss...
