Preliminary Budgets • Preliminary estimation has been done and reported: • SIZE 300 x 400 x 500 mm3 • MASS 16 Kg • POWER 30W • Updated budgets will be provided during Phase B study. A reduction of the allocated budget is foreseen. • Functional Requirements • The EUSO Balloon IR camera shall be designed as the lower cost hardware but sufficient for mission objectives. Moreover, this hardware will be reusable for all the balloon campaign opportunities, including possible standalone campaigns.
IR Cam development Plan • Due to the utilization of COTS equipment, it is foreseen to build the EUSO balloon IR camera flight hardware assembly. The flight hardware shall be qualified for the environmental constrains of the balloon campaign. This approach can be considered similar that the Proto-Flight unit in a Space Mission. • The foreseen qualification facilities are placed on the Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA). • All the components will be ITAR free • The Mechanical box will be designed to fulfill waterproof requirement. • The EUSO balloon IR camera will be qualified and validate according to the environmental constrains of the Balloon Flight Campaign.
Work Plan and objectives • To assess a technical solution of the IR Camera • To Verify the IR filter availability • Optical Design similar to FM? • To Analize and study the Environmental operating condition of the commercial cameras • To Define an image acquisition strategy (similar to FM?) • To study the IR Calibration operation • To evaluate the impact of a Day-light Flight • Radiative Algorithms and StereoVision method Plan? • Define the I/F • Budgets reduction
