Auto-Gyro CanSat System with Multi-Camera Payload

Auto-Gyro CanSat - Multi-Camera Payload Assembly

Designed and developed a CanSat system with two-stage descent, including parachute deployment and auto-gyro payload separation, meeting altitude-triggered deployment and descent rate requirements. Designed mast, hub, and blade assembly for auto-gyro in Autodesk Fusion for stable 5 m/s descent. Modeled and 3D printed a rotary stage separation mechanism to enable altitude-triggered payload deployment. Led a 16-member team in the Space Systems Design Club; ensured compliance with mass, budget, and schedule constraints while presenting successful PDR and CDR reviews to industry engineers. Presented final design and successfully launched at international competition, earning an 80% mission score.
