Project Summary | Project Information |
---|---|
Current L-3 Global Communications Manpack Systems involve a manual pointing elucidation. The desired system is to have a geared mechanism that rotates the dish to point automatically. In essence what we will deliver is a prototype that will support a 24 inch parabolic antenna such as the L-3 GCS Panther product that will point based on control by a laptop and minimal human intervention. The students will be experimenting with actuators, shaft encoders, tilt sensors, and potentiometers. |
