Abstract

The autonomous underwater vehicle vision system by using pixy camera is designed for a purpose to detect and track the object under the water.This project is combination of three main element which is mechanical,electronic and software development.For the mechanical design,a body of an AUV is assemble and additional weight is added at top and bottom to make this design of an AUV has a natural buoyancy in the water.For the electronic part,four thruster DC motor and two bilge pump is used for the moving purpose.Four DC motor for upward and downward movement while two bilge pump for forward and backward movement.A pixy camera is mounted at the front of the AUV to detect and track when detected the color code in the water.One Arduino MEGA 2560 is used in order to control the movement of the six motor.Lastly is the software design,a pixyMon software is used for the pixy camera to assign the signature of the image.A suitable software is used to make a coding and uploaded into an arduino to make the AUV works well.Both hardware and software will be combined all together.
