Lehigh students interested in rocketry and aerospace

Talon’s LAIKA payload combined LiDAR sensors and infrared cameras for a post-landing terrain survey.

Field notes

The project pages separate competition vehicles from certification builds and research areas, giving the club’s work a useful structure. The Talon account records a shortfall from its 10,000-foot target but also reports recovery of the rocket components and payload; the page identifies LAIKA as a robotic dog carrying LiDAR sensors and infrared cameras.
