Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, a prototype model of attitude determination unit with omni-directional camera for nanosatellites and cubesats was developed and evaluated in ground environment. The model is consist of an imaging sensor and a FPGA board. Single imaging sensor can observe the shape of Earth, Sun, and Moon, then the image can be processed in satellite onboard unit. Three-axis attitude determination can be achieved both in daytime and eclipse phases. The target precision is less than 0.1 degrees, which is equivalent to low-end star sensors. Nanosatellites have limited resources in mass, volume, and power. The new sensor can be advanced technology by solving these restrictions.
