From Sim to 6DOF: Deep Learning for Real-Time Satellite Pose Estimation from Resolved Ground-Based Imagery
This work presents the first complete system for automated six degrees of freedom (6DOF) satellite pose estimation from spatially resolved, ground-based, adaptive optics (AO)-corrected imagery, addressing a key challenge in Space Domain Awareness (SDA). The approach mitigates the need for human labeling by directly reg...
