There are various types of Attitude Determination sensors such as sun sensors, magnetometer, RF beacon but only Star Trackers can achieve the accuracy to arc seconds. A Star Tracker is an embedded system mounted on a spacecraft comprised of an Image sensor and a Computer. It helps determine the atti...
