Video imaging has a range of possible civil, security and commercial applications, but limitations in capability have previously made it difficult to implement operationally useful systems. Mass optimized to increase single launch capacityįast revisits and system responsiveness enables applications including tracking and monitoring, change detection, Pattern of Life assessments and support to humanitarian or disaster operations.Automated LEOP and in orbit commissioning to minimize time from launch to operational capability.Our Deep Thought avionics suite for user defined onboard processing and improved payload mass fraction.Custom telescope with COTS camera adapted for space use.Compatible with sun-sychronous and low inclination orbits.High resolution 1 meter GSD imagery from a 500 km orbit.SSTL Carbonite series of platforms have an integrated avionics structure for fast manufacture in high volumes.
