Experimental Design Validation of Tilting Calibration Mechanism by Using Shape Memory Alloy Spring Actuator
A tilting calibration mechanism is periodically deployed to view the reference temperature target during on-board calibration of a spaceborne imaging sensor and stowed after calibration. In the present work, we have proposed a new design strategy using a shape memory alloy (SMA) spring as an actuato...
