| Abstract | Since 71 percent of the earth surface is covered by water, the underwater explorations were popular and ROV played the important part of the explorations. ROV can save time and human resource because human divers cannot go to the deepest level of water and it may be high risk for divers. ROVs are used in undersea research when scuba diving is not possible due to depth and time limitations or when manned submersibles are expensive and not cost effective. Remotely operated vehicle (ROV) is a wire-guided mobile robot, highly maneu verable, unoccupied and operated by a crew aboard a vessel or platform. Development of a remotely operated underwater vehicle brings a vessel that has a three degree of freedom and can be controlled by Wi-Fi devices. This paper included the designing a low cost remotely operated underwater vehicle( less than 500 dollars) which is a mini ROV however it has 3 DOF and can be controlled by smart phone or any other devices which can connect to Wi-Fi. The vehicle can go up to 5meters maximum depth of water and it can use in night time also. The output of the ROV is high definition video of objects underwater and it can be able to control via Pilot. The pilot can manure the vehicle by user interface, can choose autonomous and manual mode and live video streaming feedback. This report presents the development of ROV from mechanical design, electronic design and software implementation. |
