A.K.A. KNOWLEDGE

ARDUINO - KICKSAT -ARDUSAT

Page 2: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

INTRODUCTION

• There are many technologies and programs like the Arduinos, the

ArduSat and the KickSat

• This technologies help us to expand our knowledge and facility the

research

• We are going to present want is Arduino, ArduSat and KickSat

ARDUINO

Page 4: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

ARDUINO MEGA 2560

• Open source electronics

prototyping platform

• Easy to use hardware and

software

• Can sense the environment

by receiving input from a

variety of sensors

Page 5: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

ARDUINO MEGA 2560

• Is a microcontroller board

based on the ATmega2560

• 54 digital input/output pins

and 16 analog inputs

• Can be programmed with

the Arduino software

Page 6: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

WHAT WE CAN DO WITH THE ARDUINO?

• Robotics

• Agriculture

• Speech

WHAT IS AN ARDUSAT?

• ArduSat’s are open-source arduino-based nanosatellites (based on

the CubeSat) developed by NanoSatisfi.

• They will have an extensive sensor-suite onboard and will allow

users to upload their own code and run their own experiments.

Page 10: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

WHY AN ARDUSAT?

• ArduSats are based on CubeSats, but CubeSats alone are still

fairly expensive—a few hundred grand. ArduSats are cheaper

satellites and more accessible that can be created by students or

anyone interested in building a satellite.

WHAT THE ARDUSAT WILL USE

TO WORK?

Page 12: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

WHAT IS THE MAIN FUNCTION

OF AN ARDUSAT?

• The main function of the Ardusat is to send and receive data from

a computer.

• The ardusat satellite has many sensors but the sensors that are

used for the ardusat satellite depend on what are your expecting to

analize in your investigation.

KICKSAT

Page 14: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

WHAT IS KICKSAT?

• Small satellite project

• 3U CubeSat containing 200 “Sprite”

• Amateur radio CubeSat technology demosntration mission

• It will be launched in September 2013

• Project crowd-funded through Kickstarter

• Sprites

Page 15: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

• Femtosatellite with a measurement of 3.8 square cm and a

thickness of 2.5 mm

• Includes power, sensor, and communication systems on a

printed circuit board.

• Intended as a general-purpose sensor platform for micro-

electro-mechanical or other chip-scale sensors with the ability to

downlink data.

SPACECRAFT “SPRITE”

SPACECRAFT “SPRITE”

Page 17: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

SPRITE BACKGROUND

• Space dust

• Inspired by the Sputnik Launch in 1957

Page 18: AKA - Arduino.KickSat.Ardusat Presentation

“SPRITE” APPLICATIONS

• Environmental Props

• Interplanetary chemist

• In-orbit inspection

• Interstellar explorers
