  1. Dr. Ramsey’s Summer Research Project Summer 2013 With: Ian Eglandand Brian Zohorsky

  2. Project “Dream” • Goals • Contribute collected meteorological data http://dream.ianegland.name/blog/ http://dream.ianegland.name/wiki/ Engineer payload and receiving system

  3. Weather Balloons • Limitations • Weight • Power • Temperature • Safety • Legal

  4. Payload • Microcontrollers • Arduino Uno • Arduino Due • Raspberry Pi

  5. Payload • Sensors • GPS • Barometer • Hygrometer • Thermometer • HD Camera

  6. Receiving System • Amateur Radio • Automatic Packet Reporting System (APRS) • Polarization • Quadrifiliar Helix Antenna • Amateur Television • Fast Scan TV • Slow Scan TV

  7. Receiving System • Publishing • On Web • Virtual Private Server (VPS) • On Mobile • Android • NOAA’s National Climactic Data Center

  8. Expectations • Retrieve position, temperature, barometric pressure, and humidity from a helium-filled weather balloon at altitudes exceeding 100,000 feet, in as close to real time as possible. • Record HD video of the journey. • Make collected data available to the meteorological community.

  9. Future Work • Lower cost • Extended Flight Time • Alternate Power Sources • Solar Cells • More Electronics Projects • CubeSat • Lab Monitoring • Home Automation

  10. Thanks for your time.
