Space Exploration

UVIS, is the miniature spectrometer dedicated to the ultra-violet & visible wavelength range onboard NOMAD, the scientific instrument orbiting around Mars and enabling the detection of the components of the Martian atmosphere, even in low concentrations.

Imaging Technology for harsh environment

Imaging device working at extremely high temperature that records the position of the flaperons of the “Intermediate eXperimental Vehicle (IXV)” during the re-entry phase.

Attitude & Orbit Control Systems

The Picard Sun Ecartometry Sensor (PSES) is the fine solar pointer aligning the Picard satellite instruments with the sun and boasting an accuracy higher than 5 arcsec (~0.001 deg). The Picard satellite is a CNES solar-terrestrial microsatellite of the Myriade series. Its overall objective consists in monitoring the solar diameter, differential rotation, and constant (simultaneous measurement of the absolute total and spectral solar irradiance), and in studying the long-term nature of their interrelations.

Optical Metrology & Manufacturing

Experimental cell glass section for fluid physics in microgravity. This dodecagonal glass cell boasted extreme alignment specifications, as the glass had to be distributed with 30° +/-12arcmin in between each side with a front-to-front glass alignment under 18 arcsec. This was manufactured through the controlled gluing of twelve high-spec glass blocks.

Microgravity Instrumentation

The Selectable Optical DIagnostics (SODI) payload project, developed in collaboration with QinetiQ Space for ESA, embeds three major optical diagnostics. Each Optical Diagnostics works on two parallel optical channels: two-wavelengths interferometers (Mach-Zehnder types), a Fourier interferometer with two perpendicular views and a separate module (separated for safety reasons related to the investigated solutions) dedicated to near-field scattering on colloid solutions.
