Nakuja Project
Worked as a member of the Recovery team for the Nakuja project N-3 rocket, contributing to the development of a liquid propellant rocket designed to bring nanosatellites into low earth orbit.
Stack
PCB Fabrication, Embedded Systems, Rocketry, C/C++, Avionics
Status
Completed
Problem
Developing a reliable recovery system and avionics for a liquid propellant rocket requires precise coordination of multiple subsystems. The rocket needs accurate data transmission from onboard sensors to the ground station, a reliable parachute ejection system for recovery, and robust avionics to control and monitor the rocket's flight path.
Solution
Collaborated on the implementation of the parachute ejection system and worked to ensure reliable transmission of data from the onboard rocket to the ground station. Involved in PCB fabrication and implementation/testing of the avionics system for N-3 rockets, ensuring all systems functioned cohesively for successful rocket recovery and data acquisition.
