RoboNet

(global network of robotic telescopes to follow up on GRBs)

RoboNet is an array of three 2-meter robotic telescopes across the world, aimed at follow-up observations to gamma-ray bursts and gravitational microlensing events, and possibly other transient astronomy observations. RoboNet-1.0 operated from 2004 to 2007, followed by RoboNet-II using new software, which may still be operating.


Note that the name RoboNet has also been used for at least one non-astronomy project.
