Abstract :
The developed module was created to record data during the flight of a rocket and to permit to the user to retrieve the data after it was recovered. The entire structure was designed to withstand high accelerations and an unfriendly environment. The measure parameters are: rocket engine pressure, atmospheric pressure, acceleration and GPS indication on speed and height. A second important function of this logger is to count time and to trigger the ejection of the parachutes after a set time. The value of the time interval between launch and parachute ejection is set from a PC GUI. After recovering the rocket the data from the data logger is retrieved by connecting it to PC thought USB and on the PC side a GUI is used to control the data transfer and store the values in CSV format.
