  1. A freeform pushbroom hyperspectral imager design was investigated as a combination of a freeform reflective triplet imager and a freeform reflective triplet spectrometer used in double-pass. The design operates at about F/2 with a 15-degree cross-track field-of-view and a 30 mm entrance pupil diameter. The design process led to achieving a small volume of less than 2 liters that fits comfortably within a 3U CubeSat geometry, exemplifying the compactness of this hyperspectral imager. We report the freeform sag departures and maximum slopes of the freeform surfaces, as well as the manufacturing tolerances together with an evaluation of the system stray light, all of which highlight the feasibility of a design in this class to be manufactured. This design uniquely positions itself on the landscape of compact hyperspectral imagers.
