TriScape100

The TriScape100 is offering near real-time change monitoring at an exceptional resolution in a CubeSat form factor. This imager design is based on a 12.6 megapixel CMOS image sensor with integrated Red Green Blue (RGB) Bayer filter in the visible spectral range. The TriScape100 provides snapshot imaging with a frame rate of up to 150 fps to accommodate high-definition video.

Features:

  • 12.6-megapixels (4096 x 3072)
  • Up to 150 full resolution frames per second
  • 4.75 m GSD (at 500 km orbit height)
  • Ground footprint equal to 19.4 km x 14.6 km (at 500 km orbit height)
  • Integrated RGB Bayer filter in the visible spectral range
  • 128 Gigabyte non-volatile storage capacity for up to 8000 image frames
  • On-board image processing and compression capabilities (optional)
  • Comprehensive onboard telemetry and health monitoring
  • Latch-up current monitoring and optional on-board power switch with quick turn-off
  • Inject AOCS/ADCS parameters and time information into data stream
  • Option to integrate pulse per second signal
  • For more technical details see Documents tab below

Applications:

  • Emergency management
  • Precision agriculture
  • Forestry and land use
  • Coastal monitoring
  • Resource and infrastructure monitoring

The signal-to-noise ratio for a selection of integration times is shown in the Figure below. A radiance level of 100 W·m-2·sr-1·µm-1 is assumed across the spectral range for all of the SNR values. The figure also shows the relative through-system efficiency of the three spectral bands inclusive of sensor quantum efficiency (QE), lens transmittance and NIR blocking filter transmittance.
