High altitude balloon system is data gathering system from the atmosphere. The system consists of two part, first is payload of the system including set of sensors for humidity and temperature measurement, GPS module for specify the balloon position through receiving GPS data from the satellite and taking photos by TTL camera and store this photo in SD Card memory. All the payload components controlling by Arduino Microcontroller. The second part of the system is A ground station which consists of PC, XBee module and TTL serial USB. A two Pair of XBee modules used to communicate between the payload and the ground station.
