    HIPPARCOS provides star trackers coping customers’ needs in term of requirements, configurations and target missions. The star tracker portfolio is composed of:

    • ARGO Full Autonomous (FA) is a fully autonomous, plug & play solution, featuring high robustness and flexibility. It is targeted to larger platforms (beyond 50 kg) in single-satellite missions or small constellation where a robust Plug and Play solution is preferable to a Centralized Processor.
    • ARGO Semi Autonomous (SA) is a lighter and smaller architecture, with SW running on Spacecraft OBC (On Board Computer) in order to reduce the system SWAP (Size Weight And Power). It is a solution that targets the constellation market.
    • ARGO Interplanetary SA is based on the ARGO SA architecture, with suitable hardware selected for use in interplanetary missions
