Completed Projects

  • ADIA

    In the ADIA project (Autonomous Diagnosis System for Satellites), a system is being developed that is capable of independently analyzing incipient or already occurring faults on board a satellite and determining their causes.

  • ADIA ++

    The ADIA autonomous diagnostic software will undergo a major upgrade over the course of two years so that it can handle the very large volumes of telemetry data that are constantly being generated on board large satellites and interplanetary space probes.

  • ADIA-Light

    Development and on-orbit testing of a primary payload for the SONATE nanosatellite mission for autonomous diagnosis of operational problems.

  • AROS

    Within AROS, novel software and hardware technologies for miniature star sensors are developed and tested.

  • ASAP

    Combined sensor and planning system to increase the autonomy of satellite operations.

  • ASAP-Light

    Combined sensor and planning system to increase the autonomy of satellite operations, on board SONATE

  • ASMET

    Autonomous sensor network for detection and observation of METeors.

  • ATUS

    In the ATUS project, the ASAP system environment is being simulated and tested in hardware and software. In particular, autonomous operation with ASAP will be tested in an artificially created environment.

  • BayKoSM

    A study of a nanosatellite with autonomous image data processing capability was conducted as part of the BayKoSM collaborative project funded by the Bavarian Space Agency.

  • MultiView

    The MultiView sensor, built to be used in the TunaCan slot of a CubeSat, is a novel star sensor with functional redundancy and continuous angular attitude determination being its characteristics.

  • NACOMI

    Nanosatellite communication technologies for use in interplanetary space.

  • SATEX

    SATEX is a study on the use of small satellites in extraterrestrial missions.

  • STELLA

    Development of a new type of star sensor for pico- and nanosatellites. STELLA features high precision for many different payloads.

  • SkyCAM

    SkyCAM is an automatic observation platform for detection of moving objects in the sky.

  • SONATE

    Development and operation of a nanosatellite at the University of Würzburg for highly autonomous payloads.
