Recent innovations have made possible the use of autonomous on-board vision-based systems for space missions. Cameras are relatively cheap, light and low-power sensors which can provide an important amount of data for estimating the navigation state of a spacecraft. The drawback of course is that this information has to be extracted through complex algorithms, often running on high-performance hardware and requiring the use of a large number of images -either ...
