Description

A simple design of railgun

README

Railgun

A railgun is a type of mass driver. It contains a pair of rails to accelerate a conductor projectile to a high velocity. This project is a design of a toy level railgun. We'd like to make it easy to implement, so people can build it as a hobby project.

NOTE: Please turn on git LFS when cloning this project.

Design

The principle of our design, and a detailed introduction of subsystems are in Design

Disclaimer

A railgun is operated by LETHALLY high voltage and current. If you don't have enough knowledge and experiences on high voltage electric, please keep extreme cautions on insulation.
