Evenetch will provide the LIDAR and Altimeter specified Timing Module (LSTM) Engineering Model, based on the Qualification Model MPET (ESA Contract No. The conventional design of Eventech Event Timer made it possible to easily integrate it into the Neptec LiDAR and successfully test it.Ĭurrently, Eventech is working for ESA with EFACEC (Pt) supplying a space-qualified Event Timer processor for a HELENA Laser altimeter, foreseen to fly aboard the HERA spacecraft foreseen for Asteroid mapping. The reason is that there are no <10ps TDC available on the space market and only Eventech solution can be applied even though only EQM was finalized as a result of Eventech ESA contract. (current MDA UK Ltd.), who invited Eventech to ESA & Roscosmos moon mission “Luna-27” to build TDC for Neptec LiDAR system. In 2016 Eventech was awarded with ESA contract for technology transfer for space applications and in 2017 was introduced by ESA to Neptec UK Ltd. Laser Altimetry is the direct extension of the highly developed Ranging technique, involving laser mapping of specific target areas, as for landing sites or land (resources) mapping & management, etc. The STTT can be manufactured into a space grade timing device for embedding into several systems/subsystems to provide all these major functions simultaneously operating on-board of a satellite: For example, Optical Gravimetry, Optical Time Domain Reflectometry, and Optical Gyroscope for Rotation Measurements. The capabilities offered by picosecond-precision Time Tagging, alias Event Timer, allow for significant improvement of measurements already being performed by other techniques as well as open possibilities for novel measurements in Science & Applications Domains.
