Abstract

The design of a CanSat type pico satellite it is necessary to opt for the design philosophy and approach through systems and requirements engineering, since it allows to start from the needs of the client, which in this case are the organizers of the CanSat Colombia 2020 Challenge, and of each of the stakeholders of the project and the contest. This paper presents the result of the approach of the mission to be accomplished, its goals and objectives, as well as the different requirements of the stakeholders and the system that the prototype must fulfill, whose final prototype called GITISAT-2305, was socialized with the participation of the GITI research group of the San José Higher Education Foundation in the CanSat Colombia 2020 Challenge.
