Vision in Action
Enhancing Satellite Manufacturing with Machine Vision An optical solar reflector (OSR), or a second surface mirror, is a critical thermal control element that protects satellites in high-radiation environments, such as geostationary orbits. Traditionally, OSRs have been mounted on satellite panels by hand. Two or more workers would have the meticulous task of positioning the OSR strips and ensuring that they were correctly aligned. To make the...
