Star Tracker for Nano Satellites

The nanoST Star Tracker is a compact, high-accuracy attitude determination solution designed for nanosatellites and other space-constrained spacecraft platforms.

Using an integrated CMOS imaging sensor, nanoST captures star-field images and identifies stars and constellations to determine the spacecraft’s orientation and pointing with high accuracy.

Designed for reliable and straightforward integration, nanoST combines proven COTS components with space-grade parts in a robust architecture. Its plug-and-play design eliminates the need for additional electronic support modules, simplifying integration into the spacecraft ADCS.

Combining compact size, high accuracy, reliability and simple integration, nanoST provides a versatile star-based navigation solution for demanding space and aerospace applications.
