Design and implementation of software in the loop architecture for active space debris removal high-fidelity scenarios

The thesis is part of the HELEN project which aims to create a high-fidelity testing environment for the active space debris removal capturing system (FlexeS). The thesis is focused on developing real-time photorealistic in-orbit simulations (digital twin) for the capturing system, as well as designing and implementing a software-in-the-loop architecture for testing the latter.
