Team ROSV Tim Dewberry & Brian Mulvaney
Design Overview • Remotely Operated Submersible Vehicle
Design Objectives • A submersible vehicle with waterproof construction • Capable of being controlled using a graphical user interface (GUI) on a laptop connected by Ethernet cable • Streaming video relayed from the vehicle to the GUI
Design Uses • Underwater treasure hunting • Maritime mine detection & classification • Recreational use
Chassis • PVC piping glued together to produce a water tight environment for electronics inside
Four Attwood V500 Bilge Pumps Used for changing direction Two Attwood V1250 Bilge Pumps Used for going forward & reverse Propulsion
Power • Electrical power will be provided by two 12V batteries that will run all propulsion pumps, flashlight bulbs, electrical devices, and onboard video camera
Camera • X10 “Anaconda” camera within vehicle • Streamed to laptop and displayed to user through the GUI
Electronics • Microchip’s PIC18F2320 microcontroller will control maneuverability of the vehicle and provide a means of communication between the vehicle and the GUI • PIC will control on-board peripherals such as pumps, sensors, and lights
