Flight Opportunities
Micro-Avionics Multi-Purpose Platform (MicroAMPP) (MicroAMPP)
Project Description
This flight demonstration is part of the Tipping Point 2016 effort to develop the Micro-Avionics Multi-Purpose Platform (MicroAMPP), a common avionics architecture supporting microsatellites, launch vehicles, and upper-stage carrier platforms. More information about Tipping 2016 available here.

Anticipated Benefits
The Micro-Avionics Multi-Purpose Platform (MicroAMPP) is a common avionics architecture supporting microsatellites, launch vehicles, and upper-stage carrier platforms. It is configurable with different sensors and actuators to support the particular application, allowing developers to fine tune performance vs mass, volume, power, and cost. Use of a common platform allows increased production capabilities, with a focus on automated testing for requirements verification. The reusability of common hardware and software across satellite, launch vehicle, and carrier deployer applications maximizes heritage, allows greater code re-use, and provides a broader return on investment.
