The Anglo-Australian Observatory has undertaken a design study for a ≈1000 fibre positioner for the prime focus of the Giant Segmented Mirror Telescope (GSMT) as part of the MOMFOS (Multi-Object Multi-Fibre Optical Spectrograph) instrument. To our knowledge this is the first design study funded for a prime focus instrument for an ELT. It offers a particularly elegant and efficient solution for wide-field multiobject spectroscopy on extremely large telescopes (>30m) for the acquisition of large scale high-redshift surveys (1
