BiOptic [written with uppercase O to differentiate with other types of bioptic] driving is a method of driving that utilizes both the patient's general vision in combination with intermittent spotting through a small telescopic system that improves the sharpness of the patient's far vision.

The telescopic system of 4,500 seats was a critical element in allowing different configurations and quick turnaround between events.

Asked how easy it was to grab the shots with his telescopic system, Thierry told BBC News the, "difficulty was very comparable to UARS; they had comparable speed, brightness and size.

The platform at the top of the innermost shaft, i.e. the one within the core of the telescopic system, will be able to reach altitudes around 100 km, and perhaps above depending on the intended operation, and so potentially provide the needed support for facilities to exercise important non-orbital space operations.

He provided a greater generality as previously found in the telescopic system treatments, so the one in which the fundamental points were missing.

Primarily, this is by use of magnification in the form of telescopic systems for distance vision and optical or electronic magnification for near tasks.
