4 Develop and test a system that will use piezoelectric materials to convert mechanical vibrational energy into electrical energy to trickle charge on-board power systems. 4

5 Demonstrate feasibility of power generation via piezoelectric effect under Terrier-Orion flight conditions Determine optimal piezoelectric material for energy conversion in this application Classify relationships between orientation of piezoelectric actuators and output voltage Data will benefit future RockSAT and CubeSAT missions as a potential source of power 5

14 14 Primary ObjectivesComplete? Power generation via the piezoelectric effect under Terrier- Orion flight conditions Yes Classify the relationships between the orientation of piezoelectric actuators and output voltage Yes Ensure system activates upon launchYes Data is autonomously recorded to SD cardYes Secondary Objectives Visual data recorded to SD cardYes Data collection systems are self poweredYes Voltage generated purely from launch vehicleYes Accepted for flight with RockSAT-C programYes

16 Ready! Travel arrangements set Payload is assembled and ready to go Integration with Temple Almost Ready! Documentation For Drexel Payload and Canister Check-in Procedure 16

17 17 Canister Sharing with Temple Method of Integration: standoffs Height: 9.07” Combined Weight: 6.74 lb Combined CG: x-1.32” y2.04” z2.10” NOTE: material properties discrepancies CG to be adjusted with systematic ballast placement Procedure: tighten standoffs
