Feature List

The CubeSense module is an integrated sun and nadirsensor for attitude sensing. It makes use of two CMOScameras - one dedicated to sun sensing and another forhorizon detection. The sun sensor has a neutral densityfilter included in the optics. Both cameras have wide FOVoptics. The primary outputs of the sensor are two anglesthat can be used to calculate the sun and nadir vectorsrelative to the CubeSense camera boresights.
