BlackBox Sat Critical Design Review Colorado State University-Pueblo April 2, 2004 Greg Barela Jose Segovia Enrique Cornejo
Mission Description To obtain certain individual atmospheric characteristic data. Measure acceleration activity and the Earth’s magnetic force. Store and retrieve collected data.
Mission Goals and NASA Benefits Collect sample satellite direction activity Observe acceleration of the Earth’s atmosphere during entire flight and landing Route gathered data from microprocessor to micro-cassette recorder. NASA Benefit: Determining direction for output video and still shot evaluation.
System Requirements Payload under 1.5kg On-board power supply Heating and ventilation subsystems External power engaging mechanisms
System Overview Basic outline of system
Subsystem Description We have nine subsystems which form our payload. – Sensors – Instrumentation amplifier – Relays – Signal converter – Micro-controller – Coding – Micro-cassette recorder – Shell – Heater Circuit
