The objective of this project is to design an autonomous glide-drone release system for a hypersonic platform. Hypersonic vehicles must content with extremely hot environments that could destroy a regular latch and release system. Additionally, the glide-drone needs to be released in such a manner that is becomes controllable once separated from the mothership. Tests will need to be performed at slow speeds before ramping up to hypersonic releases.

Ridgetop Group is seeking innovative ideas and solutions to create a low cost Wireless Sample Mode Response Technique (SMRT) sensor that can monitor critical faults in power supplies and HVAC systems. The foundation for this technology has already been proven by Ridgetop’s Sentinel Power product line that monitors critical failure modes such as loss of filtering capacitance and changes in resonant frequency.
The project requirements can be categorized into distinct components, including system design and adaptation, implementation of a new RF communication protocol, hardware and firmware development, API creation, prototype implementation, testing and validation, compliance with regulations, comprehensive documentation, integration with the Sentinel PowerView Software Platform, and the establishment of a project timeline with associated milestones.
Each of these requirements is critical to ensuring the successful design, development, and testing of the wireless SMRT sensor, aligning with Ridgetop’s objectives for enhanced monitoring capabilities in power supply and HVAC systems. Additionally, the provision of a detailed cost estimate encompasses the financial aspect, offering transparency and accountability throughout the project's lifecycle.

A bedknife is approximately 2.5” wide x 22” long x .134” thick. One side of the length of the bedknife is a plurality of holes used to mount to the mower. The opposing side has a precision ground “lip” which is the cutting edge of the knife.
One step of the manufacturing process is to heat treat the bedknives to harden the steel for added wear. During this process of through hardening in high temperatures, the bedknives will warp or crown up to 0.75” over the length of the part.
This project is to create a machine to re-straighten the bedknives
1. The bedknives must be straight to within .005”.
2. The warp of the blade will not always be in the center
3. The material is hardened to 45-48 HRC.
4. The sharpened “lip” or edge cannot be touched in the process. Pushing on the lip will cause a kink or wave and render the knife unusable.
5. Straightening pressure can only be applied on the mounting side.
