EFFECTIVE UNDERWATER SEARCH AND SURVEY THROUGH R.O.V.’S BHUVAN PRATAP AGARWAL1, VINEETH YELAGANDULA2, M. SRINATH3 1,2,3B.

Natural water is pollution-free and is clean water. However, due to different manmade pollution and also pollution created due to natural disaster, etc. makes the water dirty. At the same time, the fish excretion in water becomes a problem for their existence. The temperature variation in water also affects the existence of aquatic species. Further, there are many undiscovered resources like minerals are existing in the ocean and seawater. A list of parameters monitored 2 to check the quality of water is listed in appendix-1. Parameters such as pH, turbidity, residual chlorine, and temperature are monitored to check the quality of water.

Abstract - Our idea is to build a network of robots that

moves inside the sea or ocean wherever the fishing is done in a specified area with the basic knowledge and get the data (microplastic concentration, pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, etc.) of conditions of the ocean or sea, analyze the data and compares with the data which favors the fish and suggests the best area of fishing. The design is chosen to be streamlined, as it makes the Robot move efficiently inside the water body. The bot is equipped with four thrusters two present on the sides for the movement of the bot to move on the x and y-axis and for the movement on the z-axis the bot uses the concept of neutral buoyancy to move wherein There are two chambers present within the robot. The two chambers are equipped with 2 pumps which take water for the moment of the bot in the negative Z-direction and attain neutral buoyancy with the amount of water taken in, making the density of the robot equal to the water and remaining stable at that position at a depth of 5 meters, for the movement in the positive Z direction, the bot expel out the water which was taken in earlier making the bot lighter than the water to move towards the surface of the water. There are 2 more thrusters present on the bot which take in information from the Gyroscope and accelerometer for maintaining the trajectory of the robot and attenuating the disturbances caused in the water body, thus making the robot complete the trajectory without changing the initial and final mapped points.

2. EXISTING SYSTEM It has been a challenge to cover a wide area water network for surveillance of water quality and the existence of various water resources reaching several benefits to the stakeholders requires planning to cover the water network. Ganga water cleaning, a task initiated by the government of India, is one such work. Several zones are distributed all over the country. Concerned authorities moved people for sample collection and brought them back to the laboratory for testing. But the timeline may not need a sample validity duration. This is also true for the sea and ocean. Fishermen go around the sea to locate the right type of fish and sometimes come back with an empty hand. There are some boats with instrumentation that patrol the specific area and collect the sample. Samples are further tested at a laboratory. There are boat-based systems reported from China, Japan, etc. These systems are instrumented with GPS, a communication system, a sample collection system, and a measurement system. They do the measurement at surface level. But, the majority of parameters are required to be monitored at a depth of 3 to 6 feet.

Key Words: AI, UUV, ROV, Embedded, Arduino. 1. INTRODUCTION Three fourths of the land is covered with water and water is the main resource and energy for human civilization. Water resources are spread over the ocean, sea, river, small catchment area, ponds, lakes, etc. They are used for agriculture, aquatic elements, water minerals, drinking water, industries, home use and there are no areas where water is not required. The livelihood of a huge number of people depends on water resources. A bot is proposed to carry out the work. The bot can easily move around the water surface as well as under the water.

3. POPOSED SYSTEM The suggested system includes an Automated SelfPropelled Underwater/Surface Vehicle (ASPUW/S), a sample collection system, a measurement system, a GPS location mapping system, and a network-based communication system to the cloud. The operation begins with positioning the bot on the water's surface and programming it for a specified area of interest and sampling sites. The bot marks its current location with GPS data and moves across the surface to reach the target destination. It descends by absorbing water and increasing its mass in order to stabilize itself for the sample. It measures and stores the data after taking the sample. The bot releases water to minimize its mass before moving up to transmit the measured data via the communication post. It stores certain samples while

It has the major functional units like a) automated self-propelled underwater/ surface vehicle (ASPUW/S). b) Sample collection system c) Measurement system d) Location mapping system through GPS. e) Communication to the cloud through network
