The GlueX detector is being built along with the new experimental Hall D at Jefferson lab as part of the 12 GeV upgrade project which received CD-3 approval in fall 2008. GlueX is a fixed target experiment built around a 2 Tesla superconducting solenoid having charged particle tracking and calorimetry with large acceptance. A high rate DAQ system consisting of pipeline electronics will allow the detector to operate at high luminosity (10{sup 8} tagged {lambda}/sec on target). Details on the photon beam and GlueX detector are given including capabilities in resolutions and rates.
