A-STR - Autonomous Star Tracker 
A-STR is a state-of-the-art medium Field Of View star tracker integrated in a single assembly with a radiation hardened design. It is capable of ensuring robust and accurate 3-axes attitude determination with low levels of mass and power consumption. A-STR is highly reliable in autonomous attitude determination systems.
AA-STR- APS Autonomous Star Tracker 
The Active Pixel Sensor based Autonomous Star Tracker (AA-STR) is a medium Field Of View star tracker, based on a radiation hardened design, conceived as a single case sensor. AA-STR ensures robust and accurate 3-axes attitude determination in a highly compact and lightweight star tracker, providing accuracy comparable to that achieved with CCD star trackers.
