Gecko Imager (RGB)

Vendor profile

Overview

High capacity, high performance mass storage is integrated into the compact design. Featuring a mounting frame compatible with standard 2U, 3U and 6U frames, the Gecko imager is a perfect match for your CubeSat mission.

RGB images are captured directly from its matrix sensor to integrated mass storage in snapshot (global shutter) mode. Image thumbnail generation enables previews and selective image download over constrained data links. Data may be streamed to the on-board computer and downlinked at lower data rates, as required.

Reliable operation achieved by using a combination of proprietary hardware and space-proven ruggedized optics.
