摘要：Main target of this paper is to describe theconceptual design and the virtual prototyping phases of a newdetector, named Crystal Eye, aimed at the exploration of theelectromagnetic counterpart of the gravitational wave events.Such events generated by neutron stars collision (or mergers)are associated with γ-ray bursts. With its characteristics,Crystal Eye will provide the continuous exploration andmonitoring of the Universe after a Gravitational Wave eventwith a better resolution than that of other detectors such as theFermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). Thanks to its largefield of view and its design, it has the potentiality to be thetrigger for those present X-ray astronomy missions (Chandra,Swift, Integral XMM Newton) that are based on high angularresolution pointing experiment but that have unfortunately avery small field of view. An intense brainstorming phase,involving a team of physicians and engineers for the generationof concepts, started the design process. So, many preliminarysketches and CAD models were realized to well identify themain requirements of the new detector. Afterwards,considering the features and the constraints of the project, arefinement of the possible solutions among all the alternativesthought was performed, and three virtual prototypes wereselected according to the Multi-Voting Method. Lastly, the AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) Multi Criteria decision makingapproach was considered to designate the best concept.
