Solar-Powered UWSV to Maintain Lake Water pH and Surface Cleanliness with Fish Feeding Attribute
Water pollution and inimical climate condition are endangering aqua livings and results major threat for climate change which is continuously compelling us to deliberate the innovative solutions for sustainable ecological balance in the environment. To ensure the clean ecosystem of the blue water, marine Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV) and Unmanned Water-Surface Vehicles (UWSV) are among emerging technologies. The key objective of this research project is to design a cost-optimal solar-powered UWSV to maintain and monitor the lake water pH along with water surface cleanliness for ensuring safe life of aquatic livings. The proposed prototype can be controlled wirelessly and can be driven by a 75 mm propeller to serve its daily purpose. Initially, this UWSV collects surface pollutant from the lake water. And, after the pollutant removal process, sensor-based monitoring is being performed along with the facilitation of pesticide spraying and water-cleansing chemical mixing tasks to balance the water condition for the survival of lake fishes. Besides, the UWSV also proposes the fish feeding feature to assist the fish-farming process in lakes. Thus, the proposed UWSV can play an important role to keep the balance of environment sustained.
