UV-Vis-NIR Spectrometer

The goal of the UV-Vis-NIR Spectrometer project is to demonstrate the efficacy of a miniature commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) UV-Vis-NIR spectrometer that can address broad planetary science goals. COTS low-cost, mass-produced devices can be integrated into a CubeSat infrastructure for rapid development and potential large scale deployment, such as in swarms. We are working on a number of critical issues that include characterizing broadband spectral response in the context of planetary remote sensing, and data communications with the science and CubeSat bus processor.
