Abstract

Dynamic test benches with starry sky simulators are designed for laboratory tests of the star tracker working cycle. Raster screens (computer or television) are often used now to obtain the image of the starry sky. However, star images on such screens have significant differences from the real sky, which must be taken into account when carrying out dynamic tests of star trackers and processing their results.
