    The document describes the design and testing of a ballistic device to launch a projectile at varying distances with precision. A team was tasked with building a device that could launch a projectile at angles between 10 and 80 degrees while maintaining the same initial velocity, and launching the projectile a minimum of 15 feet. The document includes sections on the design brief, final design sketch, design program, pictures of the completed device, data from testing, and reflections on the project.
