Orbital Lighting System (Unit A)

Published

Description

The Satellite Applications Catapult is seeking a suitable provider to develop an automated orbital lighting system for is IOSM Facility. The system will be installed in the facilities dark room measuring 27m x 7m x 8m and contains robot systems to mimic spacecraft flight. It is expected to replicate orbital lighting conditions that accurately represent the lighting environment spacecraft will experience. As such, the system is expected to move light sources to replicate the effect of light emitting bodies (eg the sun) on spacecraft. Due to existing equipment mounted in the facility it is expected that the lighting system will be mounted to the walls or above (ceiling mounting is not possible). Movement of light sources is expected to be automated and programmable, ideally in coordination with the existing KUKA robots via ROS nodes. Light sources are to be included suitable to mimic sunlight encountered in orbit (approx. 6900 Kelvin). Light sources to be low weight & energy efficient.
