Description
High precision star tracker unit for mini and microsatellites.
The star tracker is based on advanced star tracking algorithms developed by Space Inventor. The embedded computer processing unit is built on highly reliable COTS components. The compact rad-hard camera’s optics collect enough signal to track across the entire celestial vault with full performance up to 0.3º/s.
The standard baffle provides an impressive Sun exclusion half-angle of 30º. The optical head is based on a CMOS Active Pixel Sensor with global shutter read-out, which presents itself as ideal for star tracking purposes. With a design based on very few components, this star tracker provides a supreme combination of high reliability and low recurrent cost.
The integrated processing unit accommodates the star catalogue and the software algorithms providing autonomous attitude determination, both during initial acquisition (lost-in-space) and continuous tracking.
