This repository contains a complete, integrated suite of flight software for the AmbaSat-1 picosat. This software is not officially associated with the AmbaSat-1 makers, but instead the work of Michael Kamprath, a participant in the AmbaSat-1 project. This software is being released as open source in the hopes that other participants in the AmbaSat-1 project find it useful
This project has the following main areas:
satellite-software- This directory contains the software that gets flashed onto the AmbaSat-1 picosat. This directory is a PlatformIO project, set up to be used in Visual Studio Code. The README in this directory gives comprehensive requirements for what the satellite will be able to do with this software, and by extension, how the ground software will support it.ground-software- This directory contains several pieces of software that will be used on the ground (not in the satellite). Most notable is the payload decoder for the telemetry sent to The Things Network.boards- These are the PlatformIO board definitions for the AmbaSat-1 hardware.
Pull requests are welcome! However, please do read and understand the satellite-software requirements first and keep any changes in line with the intentions of those requirements.
This software has been licensed under the GPL v3 license.
This project is very much a work in progress. Please expect things to change significantly over time.
