The Chandrayaan-1 mission did indeed include a HSI wedge filter camera operating in 400-900 nm band with a spectral resolution of 15 nm, spatial resolution of 80 m and swath of 20 km. The hyper spectral camera has 64 channels.

This is an important development and a good starting point. However, such a system still falls short of use in many if not most military applications. It would be helpful if a discussion on various algorithms and their implementation on FPGA's was carried out herein, with the objective of placing HSI devices on UAV's and dedicated military satellites.
