Opterus Research and Development is a fast-growing provider of critical spacecraft components and deployable spacecraft structures. From conception through design, simulation, analysis, fabrication and testing – we do it all.
Opterus is pioneering work in deployable structures for satellites. Our lightweight retractable-deployable masts, booms, and hinges push the frontiers of structural design with innovative tension-aligned arrays, blanket and panel solar arrays, solid surface deployable reflectors, antennas, and in-space assembly and manufacturing architectures.
From conception through design, simulation, analysis, fabrication and testing – we do it all. We specialize in advanced space structures, mechanisms, and high-performance composite R&D, and manufacturing for spaceflight.
With support from NASA, Opterus’s Spiral Wrapped Antenna Technology seeks higher ground as a deployable antenna solution for high-frequency operations.
