- Mission Overview Objectives / Goals Measure rocket speed and
spin rate Determine the rockets motion and flight path Design a
stable platform to achieve clear images during flight Successfully
retrieve the flight data wirelessly (post-flight) Obtain basic
knowledge and understanding of the design requirements and
obstacles in real world applications
- Slide 5
- Design Overview: Mechanical Solid Works model of both UW, UM
and Augsburg payload system Stabilized Plate Optical Port Motor
Power Supply Camera Main Sensor / Processor Board UM Payload
Augsburg Payload
- Slide 6
- Design Overview: Structure
- Slide 7
- Design and Testing: Based on last year Solidworks Analysis
Planned Vibrations Testing Structure deformed under 25g vertical
load
- Slide 8
- Design Overview: Electrical
- Slide 9
- Plate Stabilization: Data is extracted from two peripheral
accelerometers Acceleration data is converted to velocity via the
trapezoid rule The processor then compares current and new rocket
velocities Velocities are converted to steps per second and
transmitted to the motor controller
- Slide 10
- Design Overview: Final
- Slide 11
- Expected Results Benefits Provide Future Rocksat Groups:
Stabilization system for experiments Accurate data of flight
parameters High quality clear images for future flights Allow
expansion for wireless transmission data post-flight

- Slide 15
- Testing Potential Points of Failure Electrical Electrical
connection breakage during high Gs Unforeseen code interruption due
to interference Creating own circuit board Mechanical Vertical
supports buckling Platter or camera platform malfunction

- Final Integration
- Slide 19
- Lessons Learned What did we learn from this experience: Do not
procrastinate Communication is key for a smooth payload integration
Words of wisdom for next years groups: Do not underestimate the
size of project Involve underclassmen Keep constant communication
with other group(s) in canister Hardest part: Coordinating
presentations and reports for both groups Programming Integrating
systems together What would we change: Less electrical design
