Daytime Stellar Imager
Trex Enterprises' is developing a multi-aperture stellar tracker able to detect stars during daylight. Trex has developed proprietary automated star pattern recognition algorithms. Working with the U.S. Navy, Trex has demonstrated the effectiveness of this imager. The objective of this technology is to create an alternative navigating system for U.S. Navy surface ships and aircrafts independent of global positioning
systems (GPS).
- Precision azimuth reference independent of INS, for precision pointing at sea and on battlefield
- Trex Enterprises developed the automated star detection and pattern recognition algorithm
- Trex Enterprises' automated processing algorithm detects 6.3 magnitude star at daytime at sea level
