The NEPP FY07 Sensor Technology Commercial Sensor Survey task is geared toward benefiting future NASA space missions with low-cost, short-duty-cycle, visible imaging needs. Such applications could include imaging for educational outreach purposes or short surveys of spacecraft, planetary, or lunar surfaces. Under the task, inexpensive commercial grade sensors (e.g., CMOS-based “camera on a chip” systems) have been surveyed and selected for ionizing dose and displacement damage tolerance testing. Only inexpensive, commercial imagers with potential for use in low-duty-cycle space exploration applications have been considered; the task does not address high-cost science grade imagers or hardened technologies. The selected sensors had to meet selection criteria geared toward supporting small, low-mass cameras that produce good resolution color images. This document discusses the selection process.
