Managing Technology Projects

Our exceptional project management and systems engineering capabilities have been successfully demonstrated across small technology projects ($100k+), through to major international collaborative instrument design, construction, delivery and commissioning (up to $100M). Recent large projects include the GHOST spectrograph for the Gemini-South telescope, and the AESOP 2400+ fibre positioning system for…

Ground-based Astronomy

We lead the world in developing novel instrumentation for ground-based telescopes. In addition to spectrograph design and fabrication, we have expertise in: optomechanical engineering optical design and engineering electronics mechanical engineering and mechatronics. Supported by stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy research, we have delivered some of the highest productivity research…

Space-based Astronomy

With expertise in telescope design, optomechanical engineering, optical design and engineering, electronics, mechanical engineering and mechatronics, AAO-Macquarie is ideally positioned to contribute to the design and fabrication of instruments for satellite telescopes, cubesats, and earth-observation satellites.

Optical Design Services

AAO-Macquarie can deliver optical design for spectrographs, telescope optics, camera and detector systems and more. Our outstanding optical design and engineering capability ensures that all optical design projects are delivered to the highest standards.

Agtech/Agriculture

Our mechanical and mechatronic expertise, in particular our robotic and mini-robotic systems, together with our hyperspectral imaging capabilities, drawing on extensive optical, spectroscopic, and data analytics capabilities, are well-positioned for application to novel agricultural.
