Technical Session V: University Student Scholarship Competition
Abstract
The Earth Reference Imager (ERI) experiment on board the ASUSat 1 student satellite will provide valuable attitude information to validate the new attitude sensors along with the GPS data. Using the concept of triangulation, the satellite's tilt, swing, height, azimuth, and coordinates will be attained from an image of the Earth. This information will then be compared with the attitude sensors to confirm the data received from the satellite.
