CrystalSpace CS-252 Suupistri edge-compute space camera.

Sensor

The CS-252 Suupistri is a spacecraft camera with on-board edge-compute capability, manufactured by CrystalSpace (Tartu, Estonia). It is designed for orbital deployment on small satellites and CubeSats, and supports multi-spectral imaging configurations.^[1]^[2] The embedded processing capability is intended to enable on-board data reduction and analysis before downlink, targeting missions with limited communication windows.^[1] Specific heritage missions where the CS-252 has flown were not confirmed at the time of research.^[3]
