We are thrilled to announce that our team is one of the fifteen Brussels-based teams selected to advance to the CanSat semifinals. This report outlines our progress so far and highlights the key milestones we have achieved along the way.

In order to prepare for our first support session and to have a good base for our presentation and the questions the support team asked, we did a powerpoint that you can look at here:

Arthur ( other group), Louna and Alexandre Day one presentation of CanSat course over parachutes ( parts, materials, how the parachute flight works) beginning of code learning welding Day two Learned Python programming to develop code capable of performing basic calculations and measuring, in order to get temperature, pressure and height. course over waves ( electromagnetic) course over antennas ( types of antennas, communication between the raspberry and the antenna etc.)

prototype for our can Things done Tested the parachute, by dropping it from the second flore and calculated its final speed. We faced a minor issue, the final speed was way too low ( 3,4m/s and it's supposed to be around 8m/s). We believe that it's due to the limited drop height of two floors. We plan to conduct further tests at a different location with a significantly greater height. Prototyped the can by organizing and integrating the different modules. Here, we started t
