Aerodynamic Parameter Monitoring and Reporting System
Aerodynamic parameter estimation is an integral part of the Aerosystem design. This project develops an Aerodynamic Monitor for estimating Aerodynamic parameters like speed,location,altitude,Temperature,Pressure,Light etc. The system mainly uses a GPS(Global Positioning System) that provides reliable location,altitude and time information in all weather conditions. The main part of the system is LPC 2138 ARM-7 Microcontroller to which the GPS is interfaced. The system uses Zigbee for wireless communication which is also interfaced to the Microcontroller. The GPS values are transmitted through the Zigbee and exact position can be viewed in the Google map. The temperature,Pressure and light parameters can also be determined by the sensors interfaced to the Microcontroller. The air parameters transmitted through Zigbee can be monitored in the user's PC.
