Summary
The CubeSpace CubeStar is miniature star tracker developed for space applications. It is a medium to high accuracy star tracker designed for low power consumption, in a small form factor. The tracker outputs quaternions directly and has both “lost in space” and tracking modes. A variety of baffles can be screwed directly onto the baffle thread, making it easily customizable for any mission.
Key features
- Flight-proven algorithms
- M3 threaded mounting holes
- Outputs full quaternions
- Modular baffle thread for easy integration
- Aluminum case with EMI filters
- Common node designs with in-orbit re-programmability
