Mission Objectives

Our mission is to do the cartography of the surface of the planet, with the help of the LiDAR module (3D) and the camera module (2D), to prepare future landings against potential dangers found with the data collected.

Primary Mission:

The Primary mission of CanSat is to get air temperature and air pressure at least every second during the descent and to store it in a removable memory card, which must be easily accessible to the launch operators.

Secondary Mission:

The secondary mission of our CanSat is to scan the surface of the planet and to make maps. With the help of pictures taken by the camera module during the descent and some AI, we will make a 2D map of the ground. With the LiDAR module, we will scan the surrounding area and make a 3D map while on the ground.

What will you measure, why and how?

With the camera module, it will take multiple pictures, which will be stored in a micro-SD card. Later, with the recovered data, we will make a 2D map, with the help of an AI (called OpenCV). For the LiDAR module, we will wait for the CanSat to land safely on the ground, then it will start turning around and pitching up with each turn in the can to scan the surroundings. The recovered data will be a lot of points with their position in space relative to the can, which we will be able to use to make a 3D map.
