Re: DropCamera/ROV hybrid
little update on the system. have added fin for anti spin and water current alignment, rotor type water velocity meter and buoyancy foam so it hovers above the bottom with an weight attached by line (did the buoyancy calculations and the system was a bit negative before adding buoyancy) this way it ...

Re: DropCamera/ROV hybrid
I had a question if anyone might have a idea what happens to a 3d printed part that uses say 40% infill to 70 % infill when put under high pressure water
say 150 psi or submerged to 300 ft depth. Will the part remain intact and usefull just full of water or will it be damaged?
thanks

Re: DropCamera/ROV hybrid
Topside there are two arduinos. The Uno does the video overlay using Video experimenter overlay shield http://nootropicdesign.com/ve/ unfortunately this shield does not work with the mega 2560 so i could only use the UNO, then most all the resources of the UNO are tied up doing the video overlay so ...

DropCamera/ROV hybrid
Been working on a drop camera that may be upgraded to an rov in the future by adding (4) BlueRobotics thrusters. It uses a 4.5" O.D. acrylic tube and dome housing. The tube is oriented vertically with the dome facing downward. The p/t cam looks out the dome with lighting mounted external to the...

intel Galileo for subsea control board?
Just wondering if anyone on the forum has used or considered the intel galileo for rov subsea controller board.
It seems it maybe able to capture video via a usb cam and stream over ethernet?

Re: Bilge Pump Thruster Kort Nozzle
I am thinking of beefing up the thruster mounting point and possibly adding another mounting point for the vertical thruster as it may experience more stress when hanging in open air. I use Creo Direct modeling express and have but not used DesignSpark Mechanical. Would it be possible to post an 3d ...

Re: Bilge Pump Thruster Kort Nozzle
demonstrated the thruster today at the marine science workshop i was participating in and it puts out some serious thrust and I only took it up to 3 amps with a two bladed prop. I think it will work good for a small rov i am trying to develop for youth to use offshore and off the dock.
