  2. Brief • Mobile App for interacting with personal spacecraft • Background • Technical Challenges • Inspiring an open source, open access, personal space age.

  3. CubeSat, Chipsat, Thin-Film • Low Cost • 4kg CubeSat carries many smaller craft • 10g ChipSats can have MEMS accelerometers and gyroscopes • <1g Thin-Film craft are a system on a chip

  4. A Short History • JA Launching KickSat in September 2013 • 2nd Year Undergraduate Group Project Oct 2012 – May 2013

  5. Why this app? • Interactivity and control to users • Smartphones are the current big thing • Greater exposure for CubeSat projects • Generate public enthusiasm for open source space • Easier for CubeSat projects to have an app • Answer many research based questions

  6. System Architecture • Harvesting Data • HTML Scraping • Data Formatting • Processing Data • Sanitizes Data

  9. System Architecture • Harvesting Data • HTML Scraping • Data Formatting • Processing Data • Sanitizes Data • Presenting Data (API) • RESTful Standards • Open to all • Scalable and Flexible

  10. The Mobile App • - Android and iOS • 3D Spacecraft Models

  11. The Mobile App • - Android and iOS • 3D Spacecraft Models • Time-lapse data graphing • Customisable and dynamic

  12. What Makes This Special? • Useful for CubeSat projects • Awesome features like Augmented Reality • Open Source • Code Quality • Flexible • Open Source, Open Access Personal Space Age

  13. Future Work • Open Source in June • It’s your project – take part! • volunteer@PocketMissionControl.org • iCubeSat.org CubeSat Workshop • 28th - 29th May 2013 • Thanks to Dr. Kirsten Cater
