TriCam (vwFOV) Telescope
Overview
The Honeywell TriCam Telescope is a very wide field-of-view optical solution designed to deliver high-sensitivity imaging with robust performance and mission flexibility. Built on proven Honeywell commercial and space-qualified technologies, it supports consistent optical quality, effective stray light control, and adaptable configurations to meet a range of space and hosted mission needs.
The vwFOV Telescope empowers operators to make informed decisions for safe launch, orbit selection, and on-orbit operations.
