Space Observation Systems for Astrophysics Laboratory

Observation on data from the universe

To make observations using a balloon or satellite, it is necessary to read out signals detected by detectors and process and extract necessary information before relaying the data from the balloon or satellite to the ground for conducting analyses to extract only scientific information. Our laboratory hopes to provide a place for students to conduct research on technologies that combine hardware and software through their development of space observation systems.
