The components that comprise the Advanced Responsive Tactically Effective Military Imaging Spectrometer (ARTEMIS) payload processor, to be deployed on the AFRL TacSat-3 satellite, provide a flexible and high-performance platform upon which space imaging applications can be deployed. The payload system consists of an FPGA camera interface and processing board as well as a G4-based single board computer among other components. The combination of FPGA and general-purpose processor provides resources attuned to strike a balance between compute-intensive sensor data extraction processing and administrative tasks such as health monitoring and information downlink. This paper provides a description of the system design and highlights the system's performance and flexibility.
