Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of black light cameras, and in particular to an adaptive satellite-loaded black light camera. Background Art

[0002] A blacklight camera refers to a camera that can capture visible light images at a light intensity of 0.0001 lumens. The blacklight camera innovatively adopts a dual-sensor structure. One sensor imitates the cone cells in the retina to perceive color information, and the other sensor imitates the rod cells in the retina to perceive brightness details. The color information and brightness details do not interfere with each other, and the imaging effect is greatly improved. The video images at night are brighter and cleaner, and the colors are more realistic. It is a high-performance camera that is also used in the aerospace field.

[0003] The existing black light cameras have the following disadvantages when used: when the black light camera is used as a satellite payload, in the outer space environment, as the satellite continues to operate, its spatial position is constantly changing, resulting in a different space environment. During its operation, it is mainly affected by space factors such as large changes in temperature, changes in radiation environment, and changes in lighting conditions. The existing installation method is generally a fixed structure. Although the main body can be well protected by external protective components, its shooting end is fixed and the camera lens assembly is greatly affected by external factors. For this reason, we propose an adaptive satellite payload black light camera. Summary of the invention
