The ExoGRAVITY project has already observed numerous exoplanets, discovered new ones, and continues to deliver valuable insights into the atmospheric properties and orbital dynamics of exoplanetary systems. With the advancement of GRAVITY+ and its enhanced adaptive optics (AO) capabilities, a new observational mode—known as the “dark hole” technique—has been enabled. This method addresses the challenge of photon noise at small angular separations, opening new observational windows that will be crucial for detecting the rich population of exoplanets that should be detected by Gaia. In this presentation, we provide a brief overview of the dark hole technique, highlight key results from the ExoGRAVITY project, and discuss future prospects enabled by this powerful new mode.
