Aquatic Robot Design for Water Pollutants Monitoring

Abstract

This paper focuses on the design and development of an Aquatic Robot for water pollutants monitoring. An aquatic robot is integrated with the smartphone for data acquisition. The implemented design contains CV algorithm for image processing on openCV platform. Regularly monitoring aquatic pollutants is needed for pure aquatic environment and safe aquatic life. The human health and water transport are also main consideration towards this robot design. The proposed Aquatic robot consists of sensors and camera for sensing hazardous pollutants and capturing images of surrounding environment respectively. The aquatic robot can accurately detect pollutants and display results on smartphone in the presence of various conditions.
