Project PCB Delta-Design
1 Dec 2021 to 31 Jan 2022
Severe and widespread shortages in electronic components require OrbAstro to delta-design PCBs for components that are in supply. Without doing so, progress of on-going R&D with IUK and ultimate commercialisation stalls.
Project Thea: Hybrid RF-Optical Inter-Satellite Communications System
1 Oct 2020 to 31 Jan 2022
OrbAstro will develop to TRL5 a complete solution for optical inter-satellite communications, compatible with standard nanosatellite platforms, decoupled from nanosatellite ADCS, targeting the constellation markets.
Project Vesta: Satellite AIT Facility Batch Productionisation
1 Oct 2020 to 30 Jun 2021
Development of inspection and assembly processes for nanosatellite subsystem product-lines.
Project Eurus: COVID19 Breathalyser
