Abstract

This paper proposed an Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) for water quality monitoring purposes. The USV offered high maneuverability and accurate monitoring result with IOT implementation. The paper discussed the design and development of a USV, identifying the functionality of USV sensory system, and evaluating performance of USV based on stability, velocity, and acceleration. The USV is designed based on hemisphere shape and is equipped with two brushed DC motor propellers for maneuvering purposes. The buoyancy of USV is set at 89.1% positive buoyancy for stability purposes. Dabble Gamepad controller is implemented for USV to move remotely. Temperature, pH and turbidity sensors are embedded into the USV system for monitoring purposes. Internet of Things (IoT) system is coupled with the vehicle for data monitoring via internet as it offers versatility and efficiency. The developed USV shows outstanding results in terms of maneuverability and sensors functionality. The embedded sensors reading shows stable and accurate. This developed USV will have impact in maintaining the sustainability, and wellbeing of ecosystems and health of water resources.
