| Abstract |
This paper deals with the development of a CanSat system that can develop various software beyond the limit of existing CanSat and can expand hardware through additional module installation. To achieve this, we develop hardware of the CanSat and the ground station using the open source platform, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+. We selecte the appropriate GPS sensor, IMU sensor, image sensor, power subsystem, and communication subsystem to perform the basic mission of the CanSat. The software that controls the sensor and module required for the basic mission of the CanSat and collects the data, processes the collected data and transmits it to the ground station is implemented using Python, an open source, considering the ease of development and educational utilization. In view of the characteristics of direct interaction with users of the CanSat system and the difficulty required for software development, the ground station software that needs to process and visualize the received data is proposed to have extensibility. In addition, considering the mission and operational characteristics of the CanSat, data transmission and reception tests were conducted on the short-range wireless communication of Bluetooth and WiFi connection, and a communication method suitable for the mission was presented. |
