Describes the Intelligent Star Tracker System. The Intelligent Star Tracker System incorporates an adaptive optic catadioptric telescope in a silicon carbide housing. Leveraging off of the active optic technologies, the novel active pixel position sensors (APPS) enable wide dynamic range and allow simultaneous imagery of faint and bright stars in a ...

Neural Network Calibration of Star Trackers
<p>To maintain ideal performance, star trackers must be able to predict the direction of incident starlight to within a few arcseconds across the entire instrument field of view (FOV). Parametric camera models are commonly used to calculate star vectors from camera images and correct for aberrations in the instrument optics.

Star Catalog Criteria Selection and Mission Catalog Update for a Typical Star Tracker [PDF]
Star tracker is an attitude determination device which determines the satellite or spacecraft’s attitude using the star position information in inertial and body references. Star information is collected and stored onboard as a “Star or mission catalog”.

An Integrated Tracker for STAR [PDF]
The STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider RHIC studies the new state of matter produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions and the spin structure of the nucleon in collisions of polarized protons. In order to improve the capabilities for heavy flavor measurements and the reconstruction of charged vector bosons an upgrade of the ...

An Evaluation of Low-Cost Vision Processors for Efficient Star Identification
Star trackers are navigation sensors that are used for attitude determination of a satellite relative to certain stars. A star tracker is required to be accurate and also consume as little power as possible in order to be used in small satellites.
