The [Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM)](https://www.svom.eu/en/the-svom-mission/) is a French-Chinese mission, result of a collaboration between the two national space agencies, [China National Space Administration (CNSA)](https://www.cnsa.gov.cn/english/index.html) and [Centre national d'études spatiales (CNES)](https://cnes.fr/en/projects/svom). SVOM mission is dedicated to the study of the most powerful transient phenomena, with a particular emphasis on gamma-ray bursts (GRBs).
The [Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM)](https://www.svom.eu/en/the-svom-mission/) is a French-Chinese mission, result of a collaboration between the two national space agencies, [China National Space Administration (CNSA)](https://www.cnsa.gov.cn/english/index.html) and [Centre national d'études spatiales (CNES)](https://cnes.fr/en/projects/svom). SVOM is dedicated to the study of the most powerful transient phenomena, with a particular emphasis on gamma-ray bursts (GRBs).

The SVOM spacecraft carries four multi-wavelength instruments: ECLAIRs, Gamma Ray burst Monitor (GRM), Microchannel X-ray Telescope (MXT) and Visual Telescope (VT). ECLAIRs and GRM can detect gamma-ray transient sources in real-time with localisation capabilities for ECLAIRs. SVOM can transfer the alerts in near real-time with a typical latency of less than 30s and perform autonomous slew to allow x-ray and optical follow-up of the source with the smaller field of view instruments: MXT and VT.
