Abstract

This mechanism relates generally to altitude above sea-level based parachute release system and more particularly to a control circuit which automatically activates the release mechanism of the parachute when the altimeter detects the pre-set altitude. The altimeter thus converts the altitude into a signal and supplies the same to the micro-controller. The micro-controller will provide signal to the DC Motor in the form of input source which will trigger the DC Motor. This will activate the release mechanism. The parachute will also be provided with a tracker used for detection purpose. It is a satellite based tracker.
