In order to access to larger aperture telescopes, ASIAA started to work with Subaru telescope in 2008 based on the fruitful collaboration with CFHT. ASIAA contributes to the wide-field visible camera Hyper SuprimeCam (HSC). ASIAA is responsible for the delivery of the filter exchanger system (FES), testing system of the wide field correctors (WFC) with Canon, and the testing of few CCD chips.
