The installation of fully-depleted Hamamatsu CCDs in GMOS-N in February/March 2017 marked the conclusion of the CCD upgrade project for the two Gemini Multi-Object Spectrographs. The corresponding upgrade for GMOS-S was completed in June/July 2014, s

Fighting vibrations on large telescopes is an arduous task. At Gemini, vibrations originating from cryogenic coolers have been shown to degrade the optical wavefront, in certain cases by as much as 40%. This paper discusses a general solution to vibr

We report the results of a multi-year program to measure the vibration characteristics of the two Gemini telescopes. Measurements with fast-guiding wavefront sensors and networks of accelerometers show a correlation between image motion and optical v

Both Gemini telescopes, in Hawaii and Chile, are located in highly seismic active areas. That means that the seismic protection is included in the structural design of the telescope, instruments and auxiliary structure. We will describe the specific

The real-time control systems for the Gemini Telescopes were designed and built in the 1990s using state-of-the-art software tools and operating systems of that time. Since these systems are in use every night they have not been kept upto- date and a

The GMOS-N instrument was upgraded with new CCDs in October 2011, improving the instrument sensitivity at both red and blue wavelengths. The deep depletion devices are manufactured by e2v (42-90 with multi-layer 3 coating) and extend the useful wavel

The Gemini Observatory is continuing in the preliminary design stages of upgrading the micro-controller and related data acquisition components for the Secondary Mirror Tip/tilt System (M2TS). The Gemini North M2TS has surpassed a decade of service i

The Gemini Secondary Mirror Tip/tilt Systems (M2TS) have greatly benefited from the availability of software-based data logging-to-disk of internal variables at servo loop rates, enabling efficient testing and troubleshooting. Similar 'fast-logging-t

The Gemini Observatory is currently in the early stages of a major upgrade of the Secondary Mirror Tip/tilt Systems (M2TS). Although these systems continue to deliver good fast-steering and chopping performance at both sites, there are persistent and
