Today Bart Hertog, a member of the Stratos electronics team, graduated on a Stratos-inspired project: Incremental Non-Linear Dynamic Inversion Control of a Sounding Rocket. His project was inspired by the successful launch of the Stratos I rocket, and based on the active control canard system designed by the 2009 Stratos DSE (Design Synthesis Exercise–bachelor graduation project) group. The objective was to verify wheter an active control algorithm would significanlty improve the performance of a Stratos II-type sounding rocket and hence increase its apogee altitude.
