Is Sensor Attitudes Possible?

[MaximeJ]

Hello again @Echulion,

@Echulion

I am trying to set up GroundFieldOfViewDetector for the detection of entrance-exit events of a s/c to the ground FoV. However, simpy using this method makes my ground FoV direct straight up towards “zenith”, whereas I would like to control its direction. How can I achieve that do you think?

Not sure I understand, FoV here is attached to ground point.
If it looks towards Zenith it’s probably because you designed the FieldOfView in the constructor GroundFieldOfViewDetector to point to Vector3D.PLUS_K and used a TopocentricFrame.

If you want to look in a specific direction from the ground, you have to design a FoV vector with respect to the TopocentricFrame (X = East, Y = North, Z = Zenith)
I suggest you read this post for more information.

If you want your Fov to move with time, you have to design a similar detector using for example a TimeSpanMap instead of a basic fixed FoV.

Does this help ?
