  NIKA (New IRAM KID Arrays) is a dual-band imaging instrument installed at the
IRAM (Institut de RadioAstronomie Millimetrique) 30-meter telescope at Pico
Veleta (Spain). Two distinct Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID) focal planes
allow the camera to simultaneously image a field-of-view of about 2 arc-min in
the bands 125 to 175 GHz (150 GHz) and 200 to 280 GHz (240 GHz). The
sensitivity and stability achieved during the last commissioning Run in June
2013 allows opening the instrument to general observers. We report here the
latest results, in particular in terms of sensitivity, now comparable to the
state-of-the-art Transition Edge Sensors (TES) bolometers, relative and
absolute photometry. We describe briefly the next generation NIKA-2 instrument,
selected by IRAM to occupy, from 2015, the continuum imager/polarimeter slot at
the 30-m telescope.
