Mahalo to this collection of technical wizards for designing, building, and
supporting the Redeye infrared cameras for the CFHT Community. Thanks also goes
out to the manufacturers of many of the key components of the Redeye cameras,
including Rockwell International Science Center for providing CFHT
with the various science and engineering arrays needed for this project, Optics
for Research for fabricating all of the lenses for Redeye, Thin Film Labs for
designing and depositing the unique AR coatings on all of Redeye's lenses,
and Bear Machining for fabricating the cryostats. I would like to express my
gratitude to John Rayner of the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility for extremely
helpful conversations and suggestions while the Redeye optical design was being
conducted. Finally, I thank Mauna Kea Infrared, managed by Doug Toomey and
principally staffed by Lou Robertson, Chas Cavedoni, and Vern Stahlberger for
their crucial contributions to the design and fabrication of Redeye.
