AAC Hyperion's ST200 CubeSat star tracker offers attitude determination in an incredibly small package. The ST200, is one of the world’s smallest and lightest fully autonomous, low power star trackers, aimed at applications in pico- and nano-satellite platforms
With an accuracy of 30 arcseconds and its extremely small size the ST200 can be used in practically every platform that requires attitude determination.
The ST200 is also suitable for applications on CubeSats as well as larger satellite platforms. For these applications, additional interfaces and power supply ranges are available. Optionally AAC Clyde Space offers standard size and mission-specific baffles.
The ST200 was co-developed by AAC Hyperion and Berlin Space Technologies.
