Sub-metre resolution pushbroom electro-optical imager for microsatellites, producing 0.5 m native panchromatic GSD from 500 km with a 6-band multispectral plus 2-band panchromatic configuration. 8 km swath. Designed for the 100-150 kg satellite bus class. The companion RaptorSat complete satellite integrates the Raptor imager on a Dragonfly Bus.
The Raptor Imager is a sub-metre resolution pushbroom electro-optical sensor manufactured by Dragonfly Aerospace for the 100-150 kg microsatellite class. It produces 0.5 m native panchromatic ground sample distance from 500 km altitude across an 8 km swath, with a spectral configuration of six multispectral bands and two panchromatic bands (eight bands total; individual band centre wavelengths are not available from accessible public sources).[1]
Dragonfly Aerospace states a super-resolution panchromatic capability of 0.36 m; this figure has not been independently verified and should be treated as operator-stated only.[1]
The Raptor Imager is designed to integrate with the Dragonfly Bus and is also available as part of the RaptorSat complete satellite offering. As of 2026-05-28 the imager is at Technology Readiness Level 5; no confirmed flight record has been established.[1]
