This projects is part of a national project, co-ordinated by the University of Rome, concerning the use of micro and nanotechnologies for small aerospace vehicles. In this framework, the specific project of the research unit at the University of Naples “Federico II” is the design, prototype development and preliminary test of an autonomous navigation system for small aerospace vehicles based on the use of microtechnology (MEMS Technology). In particular, a strapdown navigation system based on the integration of miniature inertial sensors with an advanced stellar sensor will be analysed for application on board microsatellites and UAVs. In addition, the MEMS technology trend will be analysed to assess the possibilities of such a system to perform the navigation of future nanosatellites and microUAVs.
