Tracking particles ejected from active asteroid Bennu with event-based vision
L.J. Azzalini
Abstract:Abstract. Early detection and tracking of ejecta in the vicinity of small solar system bodies is crucial to guarantee spacecraft safety and support scientific observation. During the visit of active asteroid Bennu, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft relied on the analysis of images captured by onboard navigation cameras to detect particle ejection events, which ultimately became one of the mission’s scientific highlights. To increase the scientific return of similar time-constrained missions, this work proposes an even… Show more
