nanoST Star Tracker
SOLAR MEMS TECHNOLOGIESThe nanoST of Solar MEMS is an accurate device for attitude determination of Satellites. This sensor captures images of a Star Field with an internal CMOS device and identifies stars and constellations to determine pointing and attitude of the satellite with high accuracy. Its robustness is based on highly used COTS devices together with space grade parts, and it is plug & play with an integrated microcontroller, so it does not need any additional electronic support or module for operating.
The nanoST is available in two types of Baffles: a Cubesat baffle, and an enhanced sun exclusion angle baffle.
