The authors developed twin rovers for the Japanese asteroid mission Hayabusa2. The rovers were deployed onto the target asteroid on 21 September 2018. The rovers then made autonomous surface explorations by hopping. This paper describes the onboard camera system of the rovers as well as the image processing techniques made on the Ground.
