Precision of a Low-Cost InGaAs Detector for Near Infrared Photometry

We have designed, constructed, and tested an InGaAs near-infrared camera to explore whether low-cost detectors can make small (≤1 m) telescopes capable of precise (<1 mmag) infrared photometry of relatively bright targets. The camera is constructed around the 640 × 512 pixel APS640C sensor built...
