Abstract
CanSat is a can-sized satellite model used for varied space technology educational experiences. We have been developing CanSat kits including parts, instruments and manuals, while new CanSat compact, lightweight kits have been developed for beginners using Raspberry Pi Zero small microcomputers. National Institute of Technology (KOSEN) students made CanSats in the CanSat course in September 2016. They also submitted experiment reports containing the results of CanSat production and data discussion. Based on results of the reports and questionnaires, we evaluated the kits and production course. A reasonably sized model rocket could possibly launch this light CanSat. Thus, our CanSat kits would be useful for teaching materials, providing engaging high-interest space engineering experiences enabling understanding of satellite development.
