The EUDET high resolution pixel telescope - towards the final telescope

A high resolution (σ≪3μm)beam telescope based on pixel sensors has been developed within the EUDET collaboration, a coordinated detector R&D programme for a future international linear collider. The telescope consists of up to six sensor planes and can be operated inside a solenoidal magnetic field of up to 1.2 T.A general purpose cooling, positioning and readout infrastructure is available. A flexible data acquisition is available for the telescope and the system is equipped with all required infrastructure.Since the first installation of a demonstrator telescope in 2007, it has been extensively tested and used by various detector R&D groups. The telescope and its performance as well as the future upgrade to a sensor technology with a full binary readout and data sparsification will be described in this work.
