The project aims at integration of both TDI photosensor, TMA optical design with ultrahigh scale processing logic (FPGA) to produce space qualified miniaturized camera system achieving high resolution with low weight and less dimensions. Based on outcomes from previous STDF granted project “Space qualified camera computer,(2013-2015)” the photosensor is integrated on board the device, allowing more integrity ,less dominions , low weight and more compactness in the system. The optical system is designed and Manufacturing of optical system is carried out in Egypt. The product is one channel space qualified satellite panchromatic camera system based on state of the art technology in optics, electronics, and image processing techniques; a spin-off of this activity is design documentations, sources codes of embedded algorithms, check and test equipment and hardware circuit diagrams. .

The main scope of the project is to develop series of Pico-satellite using national capabilities for the purpose of technology demonstration. The alliance has a broad scope of work as follows: • To leverage the knowledge in the field of satellite technology. • To create a sustainable linkage between space research entities and industry. • To engage the private sector in space based services chain development. • To enhance the Egyptian industry level meeting the space standards. • Knowledge sharing and information dissemination of space know-how in universities and research institutes. Two satellites have been developed and launched in orbit. .
