![]() ![]() The buoyancy chamber will be opened to the water so it can flow in and out with no control, to control the system it will use a second electro valve that will let the air go out pushed by water pressure. Pressurized air will be coming from a CO2 bottle (the one used to fill the wheels of bikes) and the bottle will be connected to an electro valve that will let the air go out from the pressurized circuit to the buoyancy chamber. In my last designs, I decided to add a buoyancy control system so this will be done with 2 relays that will control the flow of air in-out a buoyancy chamber. I decided to go with this one because firstly, Arduino’s one doesn’t have magnetometer so you wouldn’t get information about positions and this one includes an IMU with Fusion sensor algorithm from Bosch Sensortec which it make several calculus for me freeing Arduino’s CPU from this computation and errors. Gyroscope (BlueDot BNO055 9 Axis IMU).2 pressure sensors (GY-BMP280 pressure sensor which will work inside the dry chamber to make sure we have control of pressure inside the chamber and a MS5803 14BA which can manage until 14 atmosphere and it will be in touch with water).2 temperature sensors (DS18B20 Temperature Sensor: one inside the dry chamber and another in touch with water).L298N Dual Bridge Engine Controller working L298N Dual Bridge Engine Controller with Arduino Sensors L298N Dual Bridge Engine Controllers in action.Once the controller was connected it worked like the charm: To make motors work I got 3 x L298N Dual Bridge controllers, each of them can handle 2 motors: The engines I am using are Bilge Pump 1100 GPH for fish tanks which I removed the cober to uncover the motor shaft: To build an adaptive software I have read so far about controllers with feedback but I expect to get similar results using fuzzy logic algorithms. This ROV won’t be able to tilt up or down, for this movement we would need 2 more thrusters and this would mean more power consumption.Īll these movements are based on theory, I believe once in the water it may behave differently, so we will adapt to the environment. Actually, those movements are basically named “ 6 degrees of freedom“: Movementsīefore building the frame I studied the possible movements I was going to develop that is the reason that the frame looks like it does. What would be a system without a clock? The basic one from Arduino works perfectly and it will let us keep track of the time.
