The development of cost effective, compact and wide field-of-view imaging air-Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) enables a broad range of applications for the detection of extensive air showers. Combining the IACT technology with ground based detectors like IceCube/IceTop (IceAct) or HAWC (HAWCs Eye) improves and cross calibrates the direction and energy reconstruction. The complementary shower information shows promising discrimination power for primary particle determination. We present the updated design of a SiPM based 61-pixel telescope featuring a sealed Fresnel optic and a versatile DAQ and slow control concept for the IceAct and the HAWCs Eye project.
