Scientific paper

We describe the ongoing hardware and software developments that shall
enable the ESO VLTI to perform narrow-angle differential delay
astrometry in K-band with an accuracy of up to 10 μarcsec. The
ultimate goal of these efforts is to perform an astrometric search for
extrasolar planets around nearby stars.
