Satellite Subsystems Laboratory - Team R2D1

Note

This repo was orginallly hosted on UCD Satellite Subsystem's private repository, I cloned it and am hosting it here to showcase it. This is just the main branch. There were dev branched that I didn't clone.

This was launched on 25 April, 2023. Unfortunately our satellite was not recovered.

Team Details

Darya Corry - @dcorry2022 : Structural and Verification Lead

Ramkiran Lepakshi - @iamlrk : Systems Engineer and Software Lead

Roisin Ryan - @RoRoisin : Electronics and Instrumentation Lead

Repository Details

This is a repository that has the code for the tuppersat r2d1. It was designed and constructed to be launched on a weather balloon to study the attenuation of UV rays due to humidity.

@dcorry2022 role as a structural lead was to design and construct the structure for which the satellite electronics part goes in. As a verification lead, verify the satellite from each component to it's assembled stage.

@iamlrk role as a systems engineer was to draw out the techincal requiremetns and map out the Function and Product tree. As a Software Lead, design the software architecture, make the software interface requirements, and to development the actual software. Few parts of the software were authored by @dcorry2022. The author name is mentioned on top of each file.

@RoRoisin role as an electronics and instrumentation lead was to design the circuit with the selected electronics components and assemble it.
