CARGOS was a Georgia Tech mechanical engineering capstone project. The system was designed to offload light payloads and simulate reduced-gravity environments for astronaut training, with the goal of integrating it with NASA’s Active Response Gravity Offload System (ARGOS).
My part
I worked on the graphical user interface and the feedback loop using a PID controller.
