For the first part of the mission, the satellite will be controlled by a new high-speed Linux-based cubesat computer developed at SSC, which is part of the University of Surrey.
The machines allow sewing patterns and operations to be standardized across a group of workers by automatically controlling the stitch, pressure of the needle and its speed, which is normally controlled by a foot pedal.
The device instructs a patient to breathe at the correct speed, and a microprocessor-controlled motor squeezes the desired dose of insulin through microscopic holes on a mouthpiece, generating a fine aerosol.
