Satellite cameras for space applications

In Ecliptic we have accumulated over 20 years of experience in the space sector. Throughout this time we have incorporated into our product portfolio the best image acquisition and processing systems, achieving the development of space cameras that have successfully participated in more than 150 space missions.

ABOUT OUR SATELLITE CAMERAS

More than 20 years of leadership in the space industry

The imaging and camera systems we manufacture at Ecliptic allow great flexibility and usability, as they are modular or section-based, which makes it easy to reuse these modules with a proven track record of extensive flight history. In addition, we provide sensor configurations that can be interchangeable with single or multiple cameras, a variety of host interfaces, and multiple processing functions.​

Thanks to our developments and technology, Ecliptic has been able to participate in major space missions, such as the Space Shuttle, the International Space Station or even Artemis, NASA's major program to bring humans back to the Moon.​

Past missions include launchers and spacecraft for LEO, MEO, GEO, cislunar and lunar orbits and other exploration vehicles.​
