With the development of national economy and the advancement of aerospace technology, modern aerospace optical remote sensors are becoming more and more complex systems with diverse functions and performance, at the same time, there is clear demand for rapid response. Traditional design methods can no longer meet the development requirement of modern aerospace optical remote sensors, so the new methods are urgently needed. Based on Siemens PLM software Teamcenter, this paper carried out the rapid development research of the full life cycle of the apace remote sensors, and established a collaborative design environment from index requirements to optical design, structural design, simulation analysis, and three-dimensional annotation and achieved system engineering, structural design, optical design, CAE design collaboration. First of all, the remote sensor demand and system index management environment were established on the TC environment, and the system index was transferred to the optical design. Secondly, based on the XML technology, the one-key update of the optical design parameters to the mirror skeleton model of the remote sensor was realized, which accelerated the iteration process of optical design and structure design. Third, based on the CREO skeleton modeling technology, realized the Top-Down design of complex optical remote sensors, improved the efficiency of collaborative design of structural design. Further opened up the multi-source data management link, realized structural design and simulated the full life cycle of data analysis management. Then, using 3D annotation technology, the 3D model was directly shipped to the factory, which improved the true transfer of design intent, shortened the drawing cycle and improved production efficiency. Finally, taking the development of a complex optical remote sensor as an example, the practical application of collaboration design was given. The research results show that based on TC collaborative design method were practical and feasible in the design of an aerospace remote sensor, and had good application prospects, which can significantly improve the design efficiency of the remote sensor and shorten the development cycle.
