Rocket Telemetry - Hardware, Software Integration and Testing

Abstract

This paper is a continuation of the previous papers: “Rocket Telemetry - Physical and Functional Design”, and “Rocket Telemetry - Software and Functional Design”. The paper will capture our efforts of hardware, software integration and testing. The software will capture and transmit data from accelerometers and gyroscopes on the module to track the trajectory of the rocket after launch. Morgan State has received a $1.6 million aerospace grant that will allow the school to complete a liquid-fuel rocketry lab and to recruit and hire a faculty aerospace leader to create a world-class program in liquid fuel. The school is looking to build and launch a liquid fuel rocket that can reach 150,000 feet.
