| Abstract: |
| Nowadays, robots play a major role in every field and every industry. Robots are used in industrial, production, medical, military, archaeological, and sea exploration. The purpose of our project is to make a submarine-type vehicle in order to track or visualize the seabed for archaeological, searching, and exploring underwater life, creatures, resources, and phenomena. The ROV (Remote-Operated Vehicle) is designed to be equipped with an onboard electronic system in order to achieve such functions. The project has passed by many steps to achieve its goals, from choosing the right materials crossing by the mechanical design, motors selection, sealing and watertight system and control part. We have used many methods to tune it together to obtain the required functions. It has also been possible to operate the vehicle via a PlayStation command. As the main function of this project is to explore under sea level, we have merged a camera at the front of the vehicle. The data from the camera underwater is displayed on a laptop screen above sea level and that is how the main function is accomplished. Along with choosing all the requirements needed to build the vehicle with can do the required functions properly and accurately, we believe that the final design guarantees the highest level of safety to achieve the most optimum design. |
