Abstract

The active buoy charging station are designed in this project for the purpose that use to charge the remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV).The buoy system is controlled by the Arduino UNO microcontroller.The thrusters provides the motion for the buoy.The solar panel provides the energy to store in the battery storage.Therefore,the battery can be used for ROV charging.GPS will provide the location of the active buoy and it will move to the ROV to charge the battery of the ROV.The coding are constructed in the Arduino software and installed to the hardware for the simulation.Lastly, the hardware and software combined all together to test and troubleshoot the error.The expected result is achieved that the active buoy system will move towards the ROV by using the GPS module.The system can self-charging by using solar panels and transmit the energy to the ROV.
