From Images2Mesh: A 3D Surface Reconstruction Pipeline for Non-Cooperative Space Objects
Bala Prenith Reddy Gopu, Patrick Quinn, George M. Nehma +4
On-orbit inspection imagery is crucial as it enables characterization of non-cooperative resident space objects, providing the geometry and structural condition essential for activ…
Dynamic Scene 3D Reconstruction of an Uncooperative Resident Space Object
Bala Prenith Reddy Gopu, Timothy Jacob Huber, George M. Nehma +5
Characterization of uncooperative Resident Space Objects (RSO) play a crucial role in On-Orbit Servicing (OOS) and Active Debris Removal (ADR) missions to assess the geometry and m…
Real-time Testing of Satellite Attitude Control With a Reaction Wheel Hardware-In-the-Loop Platform
Morokot Sakal, George Nehma, Camilo Riano-Rios +1
We propose the Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test of an adaptive satellite attitude control system with reaction wheel health estimation capabilities. Previous simulations and Softwar…
End-to-End Imitation Learning for Optimal Asteroid Proximity Operations
Patrick Quinn, George Nehma, Madhur Tiwari
Controlling spacecraft near asteroids in deep space comes with many challenges. The delays involved necessitate heavy usage of limited onboard computation resources while fuel effi…
