Imaging Sensor & Electronics Assembly for a Responsive Space Experiment

Abstract

An overview of the sensor assembly for an upcoming responsive space demonstration is provided. The "top down" methodology establishing the design baselines, including the sensor array selection, is described in the context of a responsive space payload. The detailed design is then presented. Finally, new data products obtained with the engineering and flight model assemblies for the imager are analyzed and discussed.
