| description | Juventas is a 6U CubeSat which is part of HERA planetary defense mission and takes advantage of an innovative visual based guidance, navigation and control (GNC) system to perform autonomous navigation in the proximity of the Didymain system. The GNC system is designed to ensure safe navigation in the harsh and unpredictable environment of deep space and finally to take more risks by landing on the surface of Dimorphos. To achieve a qualitative software (SW) product, a dedicated procedure of SW lifecycle is developed by starting with GNC and image processing design, which concludes with the final embedded system that will perform the visual navigation task. A Design, Development, Verification and Validation (DDVV) approach is developed to achieve the flight software: model in the loop (MIL), auto-coding, software in the loop (SIL), processor in the loop (PIL) and finally hardware in the loop (HIL). The DDVV is developed by having as guideline the ECSS standards for SW. The flight software reaches maturity by performing dynamic/static code analysis and code coverage. To ensure an optimal process, a waterfall life-cycle is considered, where dedicated MIL, SIL, PIL and HIL test benches are developed to fully support the activity and to reduce to minimum the development costs.[7] |
