Scientific paper

Recent developments at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) are described with particular consideration given to the aspects of the image quality, techniques for high-resolution imaging, computers, and communications. Two different techniques being pursued to achieve high spatial resolution are discussed, one involving the use of the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory's (DAO's) Very-High-Resolution camera and the other involving the Segmented Pupil Imager (SPI). The computer adopted by the CFHT for instrument control and data acquisition is described. Diagrams of the DAO camera and the SPI are presented.
