What is SelfieCam Video

SelfieCam is a small form factor spacecraft deployment monitoring camera with TRL 9, designed to support deployment monitoring, space situational awareness, and In-Space Manufacturing (ISM).

Non-Volatile Memory

The camera can capture and save images in non-volatile memory. It is designed with ease of integration and operation in mind, providing on-orbit imaging capability to your mission.

SelfieCam, a spacecraft deployment monitoring camera with DEMONSTRATED FLIGHT HERITAGE and is ideal for spacecraft deployment monitoring such as solar panels and antennae.

Up to 12FPS Image Capture

SelfieCam can capture and save JPEG compressed image frames up to 12 FPS allowing spacecraft deployment monitoring.

Easy data downlink

On-board JPEG encoding enables small image sizes to support easy data downlink even with a weaker communication link. SelfieCam can be directly mounted on spacecraft chassis.
