Verification and validation of HYPSO-2 optical payload

The HYPSO-2 mission is under development, and verification and validation of the hyperspectral imager (HSI) and RGB camera onboard is an important step in getting the optical payload ready for launch. 

 

Scientists interested in data from satellites have strict performance and functional requirements for the instruments, which are used by the engineers when designing and developing the instruments. For HYPSO-2, the optical payload consists of two instruments: a hyperspectral imager (HSI) and an RGB camera. This tasks starts off by developing verification and validation (V&V) requirements (based on the performance and functional requirements) for the HYPSO-2 optical payload, then establishing a V&V plan, and perform the V&V in the lab. Student(s) will use existing set-ups (already developed for HYPSO-1), and create new set-ups if needed. 

This project focuses on determining the optical performance of both instruments (HSI and RGB) before launch to make sure that the performance achieved after assembly is acceptable and within the set requirements, and will be done in cooperation with the ongoing optical calibration and characterization tasks. It is expected that some of the findings from V&V will be used as design input to improve the final design of the payload for the HYPSO-2 flight model. The work from this project is therefore highly important to prepare the HYPSO-2 payload for launch.
