Abstract

Modern astronomical instruments tend to be expensive, massive and built on an ad hoc basis. Devices developed for photonics can replace expensive bulk optics, streamlining instrument development. Here I discuss the challenges and successes in combining photonic technologies and astronomical instrumentation.
