Robo Coastal Observer (RCO)
Abstract
A low cost buoyant apparatus was developed for remote data collection in water bodies such as river, lake, pond and coast. The proposed equipment could be equipped with sensors for ocean data collection with camera .The equipment can be controlled by a radio controlled remote and the data collected are stored and can be transmitted using RF/GPRS/4G/Satellite telemetry. This equipment can also be used in Polar Regions for ocean data collection very close to the ice bergs without risking life of persons.
Unlike a fixed mooring this equipment has a flexibility of rapid data collection over an area of interest. The data collected from various oceanographic sensors could help researchers by providing valuable data on coastal discharge, salinity variation, pollution monitoring. This equipment can also be used for coastal surveillance.
