sounding-rocket

The goal of RX1 is to make the development of hobby-level onboard rocket computer software much easier. The core element of this first project is a robust messaging system to make logging, telemetry, and development easier. The long-term goal is to make a sort of PX4 for rocketry but it's a long road!

Repository for code and information relating to the EUV Snapshot Imaging Spectrograph (ESIS).

BOLT explores the usage of LiFi for Intra-Satellite Communications in real world scenarios

Arduino code for controlling sounding rocket during launch and flight

Ground Support is a telemetry visualization and post flight analysis tool developed by the University of Victoria Rocketry Team. It is designed to be a modular and dynamic application that can be used for any configuration of sounding rocket.

This repository contains, the scripts, code and tests for my white paper on the use of the Cyphal protocol onboard sounding rockets.

A Python library for interpreting images of the Sun captured by NASA's EUV Snapshot Imaging Spectrograph (ESIS).

Master’s thesis implementing a VHDL-based real-time telemetry and data acquisition system for the Aquasonic III sounding rocket. The design targets an FPGA and includes I²C sensor interfacing, AX.25 telemetry frame construction, UART transmission, and SPI-based SD card data logging, with full simulation and verification.

A model of the optical design for the Full-sun Ultraviolet Rocket Spectrometer (FURST).

This MATLAB & Simulink project was created to accurately simulate the descent of a rocket from anywhere on the planet and especially past the Karman Line. The software uses wind models, drag calculations, and force-body calculations to determine the trajectory of the rocket, and ultimately landing area.
