This project entitled ""Next Generation TriDAR"" will focus on the creation of a next-generation TriDAR platform. TriDAR is a 3D sensor used to perform autonomous rendezvous and docking in space. This project aims to reduce the TriDAR products mass, volume and power consumption in order to broaden the range of applicable missions. The project will also improve the system's data acquisition and scan speed performance, add cooperative tracking capability, evaluate and test solid state beam steering detector and technologies, and demonstrate the feasibility of hybrid 3D sensing.
This project entitled ""Next Generation Thermal Imager"" will focus on the development of a high resolution next-generation thermal camera specifically designed for space. The increase in resolution will result in a camera that is better suited to new space applications such as spacecraft inspection and remote sensing.
This project entitled ""LiDAR-based Rover Navigation Software"" advances Neptec's rover-based planetary exploration technologies based on Neptec's in-house family of 3D scanning LiDAR sensors. The project will develop a LiDAR-based suite of navigation software that integrates LiDAR visual odometry, efficient mapping, path planning, and obstacle avoidance, using the unique scanning pattern provided by Neptec's sensors.
This project entitled ""High Precision Laser RangeFinder"" further improves Neptec's high-precision laser rangefinding capabilities, essential to enabling spacecraft formation flying missions. The advancement of this technology will achieve higher levels of measurement accuracy at distances never reached before.
This project entitled ""Self Calibrating Radiation Tolerant Time-to-Digital Converter (TDC)"" is for the design and development of a Self Calibrating Radiation Tolerant Time-to-Digital Converter prototype that will comprise the following features: maintain its own accuracy across all operating conditions; allow for custom data processing and control logic to be implemented in a single device (thus reducing complexity of on-board electronics); and be used as part of a rangefinder for topographic mapping, satellite formation flying as well as rendezvous and docking operations.
