Lynx4MP

Lynx4MP is a 4MP RGB/Monochrome camera electronics backend designed for space applications. The system has been designed based on space proven processor, sensor and readout and storage electronics.

Lynx4MP is mechanically compatible with standard CubeSat form factor and can support precise image capture timing requirements. The system has been qualified for thermal vacuum, vibration and shock and tested up to 40KRad TID.

Lynx4MP camera backend electronics can be combined with different optical assemblies to suit a range of space applications.

The Lynx4MP comes in three variants:

  • Lynx4MP-10: Comes with a 10mm focal length wide angle ruggedized optical assembly. The wide field of view is ideal for space based asset monitoring and close proximity applications.
  • Lynx4MP-70: Comes with a 70mm ruggedized optical assembly. The camera can be used as an engineering camera, in docking/rendezvous applications as well as low spatial resolution Earth Observation.
  • Lynx4MP-550: Comes with a space grade 550mm focal length optical assembly to support Earth Observation and space based space surveillance applications.
