After two long weeks of hard work we finally finished the Student Experiment Documentation v2.0! =)
We had some major changes in comparison to our SED v1.0, like choosing another embedded Board for our Core System.

Our Measurement Unit will be sponsored by EXP-Tech!
EXP-Tech GmbH, a company from Saarbrücken, Germany is sponsoring us three Arduino “Leonardo” and three matching microSD-shields. The Arduinos will be applied as a so-called “Measurement Unit”.
We got our first camera!
Today we had a big surprise waiting for us at our weekly meeting: A small packet from the DLR, with our desired camera in it!
The camera, sponsored by the DLR, is a mvBlueCOUGAR-X-102b by the company MatrixVision with the Aptina MT9M021 Sensor.
New team member added!
We expanded our team by incorporating Matthias Bergmann, a student of Aerospace Information Technology in his second undergraduate year to our team.
First successful tests with realtime edge-detection!
Today Jochen finished implementing an edge-detection algorithm based on the Canny edge detection.
Even though the algorithm is at an elementary stage it’s already possible to detect edges in realtime.
HORACE anniversary!
Half a year ago our Team was established! We celebrated this event with a rocket-shaped cake, which was contributed by Marion E.! =)
