Key highlights

SelfieCam-Video is a small form factor, TRL 9, space asset monitoring camera with demonstrated flight heritage through numerous space missions. With it's small size, low power, and simple communciation interface, the camera can be easily integrated into spacecraft.

SelfieCam is ideal to get visual feedback on the status of your spacecraft while capturing "out-of-this-world" images for your media and marketing activities.

SelfieCam has demonstrated flight heritage since 2018 and provided self awareness capability for over 50 space missions, ranging from experimental cubesats and micro satellites to large constellations.

Camera can support up to 12FPS image capture and storage to on-board non-vollatile memory, and can support configurable resolution options up to 1024 x 768.

To assist the ease of integration, the following additional items will be provided with each camera order.

Debug cable which can be used to connect the camera to a PC for evaluation
Camera end terminated vacuum compatible harness for flight
Python example code to demonstrate the interfaces with camera
Unit level test reports
Interface Control Document
Command and Telemetry Handbook
On-orbit Commissioning Guide
