=== Paraffin release mechanism ===

This mechanism uses the property of paraffin wax to expand greatly on heating it. This causes it to compress a cylindrical casing which holds a pin initially. As the casing (made of polymer) gets squeezed it releases the pin, slowly triggering the deployment

==== Advantages ====

* '''Telescopic:''' This mechanism uses compression of a long structure into smaller structure by sliding one part into another.

* '''Foldable Mast:''' The structure of the mast is broken into smaller parts of the shape of a triangle and connected with the help of plastic flexible hinges to stiffen the folded structure once deployed.
