    All-In-one camera system for space

    New radiation-resistant camera heads for space applications as an all-in-one solution

    Product line of generic space camera heads
    as key imaging solution

    Our partner's camera head family offers you high-density, high-performance and high-resolution camera head solutions for space applications. These all-in-one solutions combine a high-resolution image sensor with an FPGA-based electronic architecture to integrate sensor control and image processing, power supply and protection, and a standard communication interface in one product. This generic camera architecture enables a wide range of applications, from scientific observation to equipment or payload monitoring to star tracking or GNC applications.

    Benefits

    The Multi Camera Monitoring System
    as technical solution

    The MCAM system can operate up to two 4Mpx cameras simultaneously or one 12Mpx camera alone. The composition of the Multi Camera Monitoring System and what it consists of can be found in the listing

    Note: Currently, the Multi Camera Monitoring System is in the qualification phase.

    7 full-color camera assemblies:

    • 2 types of cameras:
      5x4Mpixel color camera heads
      2x12Mpixel color camera heads
    • Flight firmware
    • Spacewire/power interface
    • Lens with 7.9 mm field of view
    • Complete mechanical case

    1 Electronic control box

    • 28=>5V DC/DC converter
    • Protection devices
    • SpaceWire-router

    Complete camera assemblies
