Low-cost system for on-board processing and control, in remote sensing equipment

In the development of equipment to be used in remote sensing environment, it is recommended consider design certain technical aspects such as: energy consumption, device size, performance, computational capacity, connectivity, radiation tolerance, among others. Therefore, electronic components capable providing these characteristics are used, which makes their cost high and becomes difficult acquire for special use. The proposal presented this investigation, use embedded card tetra TK1 NVIDIA brand, as a base equipment. This provides considerable capacity. composed CPU GPU, well communication buses expansion connect devices sensors actuators. Another feature fault tolerance critical execution times that types equipment, main tasks, sending telemetry, control navigation devices, synchronization other tasks will depend on payload As result, proposed install real-time operating system card, ensures fulfilled established with criticality required.
