About
The KSOI-90 is a 90 mm aperture optical imaging payload from Kairo Space, offering higher ground sampling distance than the KSOI-22 series. It targets medium-resolution earth observation applications including precision agriculture, infrastructure monitoring, disaster response, and maritime surveillance. The KSOI-90 is suitable for 6U and larger CubeSat platforms and features a technical datasheet with detailed optical, mechanical, and electrical specifications.
The imager is part of Kairo Space’s modular optical payload family, which allows satellite integrators to select the appropriate aperture for their ground sampling distance requirements while using common electrical and mechanical interfaces across the product line.
