摘要

現代的天文研究與科技的發展有著密不可分的關係，尤其是固態電子偵測器技術的成熟，使得天文研究進入一個準確定量化的時代，大幅加速了天文學的發展。藉著天文對影像品質的要求，更多更先進的大面積偵測器陣列也陸續被開發出來。本文將介紹台灣參與的先進紅外線相機計畫，以此為例介紹天文相機的特性與要求，並且說明其與一般數位相機的差異。

Modern astronomical research is closely connected to the technical development of the instrumentation. Especially, the introduction of the solid state detector dramatically changed the astronomical research and leads to the precise quantitative analysis. Furthermore, with the more and more requests for better astronomical images, advanced sensor arrays were developed in the last decade. In this paper, we will introduce the large infrared camera project Taiwan participates. With the projects, the detailed of the astronomical camera will be presented and the requirements and features of the astronomical camera will be compared with the digital cameras for normal applications.
