  2. OUTLINE • Introduction • Methodology • Results • Conclusion • References

  3. Introduction The response of organisms to changes in water quality parameters enhances our understanding of aquatic environment (Abowei, 2009). MODIS) and SeaWIFs, are limited by assumption of uniformity in pixels (Yuan et al, 2005). Designs limited to open oceans Insufficient sampling, Inaccuracy of geophysical corrections. Sampling can be augmented by using more than one mission (Bouffard et al, 2008) http://www.alticore.eu/ Dunbabin et al, 2009

  4. Design considerations • Drag depends on size, shape & speed: force due to drag • (F)= 0.5rhoV²CdA, lowest Cd is the best • F is proportional to speed, >speed needs more thrust and a greater drain on power. Weight Drag Thrust Buoyant force and Lift

  5. Methodology Design components • Microcontroller (Atmega 328) • Motor controllers (10A brushed) • Breadboard • SD Card Reader • GPS -shield (09487) -module (EM 406) • Temperature Sensors (LM335a) • Batteries(12V/8Ah , 12V/18Ah)

  6. Primary Navigation systems GPS and Gyro M2 Motor controllers uMMC data storage Module Microcontroller M1 Sensor payload Temperature sensor Design ASV flowchart….

  7. Final design of ASV In the workshop On land

  8. Arduino • What is an Arduino? • is a single-board microcontroller and a software suite for programming it. The software consists of a standard programming language and the boot loader that runs on the board. • Microcontroller: The hardware consists of a simple open hardware design for the controller with an Atmel AVR processor and on-board I/O support.

  9. Temperature sensor • Analog temperature sensor • Works like a Zener diode • Calibrated at 25°C at and 5V input voltage and a 2.982V output LM335A

  10. Navigation and Control (GPS) • GPS & Bearing…. • Satellite based navigation system. • Based on the network of 24 satellites. • GPS intended for military use, but available for civilian use in the 1980’s. • Works off satellite, tracking positions of locations. • For direction, tracking and navigation. www.diytrade.com www.vialite.co.uk www.rei.com www.navigadget.com

  13. Bearing calculations.. • Bearing calculations done in radians Bearing (x) =atan2(sin(lon2-lon1)*cos(lat2),cos(lat1)*sin(lat2))sin(lat1)*cos(lat2)*cos(lon2-lon1));- degrees=x* 180/M_PI; (M_PI is the constant from math.h set for value of PI) To ensure that it remains in proper range Degrees=degrees + 360°; if degrees is less than 0 http://drifters.doe.gov/track-a-yoto/track-a-drifter.html

  14. Distance calculations • Haversine distance calculations dlat= lat2-lat1 dlon=lon2-lon1 a=pow(sin(dlat/2),2)+cos(lat1)*pow(sin(dlon/2),2); c=2*atan2(sqrt(a),sqrt(1-a)); Distance= r*c;// radius of the earth in meters r = 6378140m Credit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haversine_formula

  15. Results

  16. ASV navigating on Clinton Lake

  17. Conclusion • An ASV that can navigate specific way point has been built. • Future work would focus on increasing sensor capacity by putting on board more sensors as well as buoy mode and possibly obstacle avoidance.
