If you have a question about this talk, please contact Charles Walker .

The SPECULOOS project is dedicated to the discovery of transiting exoplanets around ultracool dwarfs using high-precision ground-based observations. To enhance sensitivity to these cool stars, we have implemented SPIRIT , a new infrared detector utilizing CMOS technology instead of traditional CCDs. In this talk, I will present my work on developing the data pipeline for SPIRIT and optimizing its performance for detecting exoplanet transits. I will also highlight the discovery of TOI -2407b, a Neptune-like planet observed with this system.
