Winners
1st Place : Universiti Industri Selangor (UNiSSAT V.1)
UNiSSAT V.1 mission are to capture, process, store and transmit
multiple images which fully operated under supervision of Launch
Control Officer (LCO). The main payload of the UNiSSAT V.1 is a CMOS
digital camera with other additional sensors such as temperature,
pressure sensor and GPS. Below are the images that successfully been
captured by UNiSSAT V.
2nd Place : Multimedia University (MMUSat)
The main objective of MMUSat is to show that the design of a small
inexpensive data telemetry system is possible and could be a
platform for the future design and implementation of earth orbiting
spacecrafts. The system will have both receiving and transmitting
capabilities and will be incorporated with an accelerometer, a light
intensity sensor, a temperature and humidity sensor, a Global
Positioning System and a wireless video camera.
Primary mission of MMUSat is to act as a weather monitoring system
where all the sensors used will be able to gather the information
about the weather condition of the area where the satellite is
descending. Meanwhile the secondary mission of MMUSat would be to
act as an imaging and navigation satellite. The camera will provide
continuous video streaming of the surrounding area where the
satellite is deployed while the GPS will act as a navigational tool.
3rd Place : Islamic International University of Malaysia
Best CanSat Design : Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia
