Exploring the ocean always requires human divers going undersea. Due to the complicated environment, undersea human activity is normally dangerous. Additionally, there are limits to what human operators can collect in terms of underwater data, often relying on larger, more expensive manned vehicles to acquire the desired data. We want a remotely-operated device that captures the undersea views, with geological data attached. Thus, we are presenting a submersible ROV, tethered to a clean-energy, self-sustained buoy for power and user communication, that carries cameras and positioning sensors to explore the ocean.The ROV can capture video and images that are transmitted to a host computer, which will interface with Booz Allen Hamilton’s Ocean Lens VR platform to create a user-friendly 3D environment. Based on the design requirements stated above, we built a system block diagram of the project, showing the planned system component hierarchy. From that, we assigned design subtasks according to each team member’s expertise. The primary design sections are as follows: power (conversion and distribution of power from buoy), controls (physical operation and movement of ROV), sensors (video, temperature, positioning, etc.), and mechanics (ROV chassis design, construction, and hydrodynamics). The ROV comes with an inertial measurement unit to track vehicle orientation, as well as a GPS, to provide accurate positioning data. The ROV will operate up to 100 meter clear- and salt-water depths and will collect pressure, ambient light, pH, and temperature data while giving the user near-real-time control. The ROV comes in a watertight acrylic chassis with 3 thrusters to control forward, backward, and vertical movement while in motion and idle. Receiving power from the buoy, the ROV will charge up internal batteries that will allow it to operate for 1.5 hours.
