Within the scope of this project, the objective is to design and develop a modular avionics unit architecture encompassing the necessary sensor, control, communication, and power distribution units required for aircraft flight. Prospective candidates involved in this process will design a power module responsible for power distribution and control across avionics modules. Additionally, they will define the electrical power, electronic, and mechanical interfaces between this module and other systems.

The ultimate goal of developing this system is to establish a standardized and scalable "plug-and-play" avionics architecture that minimizes cabling requirements within the aircraft and facilitates rapid module replacement in the event of a malfunction.
