The Field Camera Unit

This report provides an overview of the results from the Field Camera Unit (FCU) technical meeting, including the definition of scientific objectives, top-level requirements, and trade-off processes for optics, mechanics, and electronics solutions. It also covers the identification of critical elements, feasibility assessment, and costs.

  2. FCU subsystems WIC Meeting, Moscow, 27-30 June 2006

  3. Phase A objectives • Definition of scientific objectives • Science team constitution • FCU top level requirements definition • Filter passbands definition • Analysis of technical (optics, mechanics, electronics) solutions to satisfy system and scientific requirements. • Identification of solutions through trade-off processes • Development of AIV and GSE principles WIC Meeting, Moscow, 27-30 June 2006

  4. Phase B1 objectives • Identification of critical elements • Analysis of expected performances • Finalization of trade off processes • Consolidation of the project through feasibility of subsystems • Costs assessment WIC Meeting, Moscow, 27-30 June 2006
