About
The FFT2G is a miniaturized Fourier Transform spectrometer payload designed for CubeSat integration. It provides spectral analysis capabilities for atmospheric composition monitoring, greenhouse gas measurements, and surface material identification. The instrument uses a Michelson interferometer design to achieve high spectral resolution across a broad wavelength range in a compact package. Suitable for climate science, environmental monitoring, and planetary observation missions, the FFT2G can be configured for specific spectral windows of interest.
