dc.description.abstract	For successful observations in any telescope, guiding becomes important. On 2.34 m Telescope at Vainu Bappu Observatory, Kavalur, a remote guiding system is assembled using Intensified CCD camera and a PC based image processing system. It is found that the camera reaches upto 14th magnitude at dark night. The PC based image processing system eliminates noise in the picture and helps in integration of faint images, contrast enhancement and other related function. Though not ideally suited for speckle observations, the camera is used to record speckles at Vainu Bappu Telescope (VBT). Requirements for speckle observations are included	en
