Features:

The naming of Player One guiding cameras is interesting. Guiding
camera is smaller than planetary camera, that’s why we choose dwarf
planets to name it.

The size of each dwarf planet to a certain extent represents the size
of camera sensors. We will name Ceres with a 1/3″ sensor camera, and
for Xena, we will name it with a 1/1.2 inch sensor camera. All names
will be engraved on the housing of the cameras.
