1) We could use the hand to take the lift bag from the j-hook and hook it onto the mast then move it away from the area. 2) I honestly would have to see something like the lift bag to see how we could "inflate it". 3) Using the hand, we could remove the coral. 4) We would have to take the corals to the grid squares before it floats. From there on I'd need to understand the rest of the mission better.
Under Water Robotics: Solutions For mission 1, task two we can determine the orientation on the seafloor by using a waterproof compass. This compass will be able to indicate the orientation from the ship's stern to the bow of the ship. The compass will have a 360 degree protector. The protector would give us the exact angle of the ship. The compass has be waterproof mainly because the lens are made for wet environments so we can read the compass more clearly. The compass should be big enough for us to read the degree numbers and the needle in the camera. The compass should be attached to one of the pvc pipes and it must be facing to the camera. It should be laying down on a pvc pipe because that is the only way for a compass to indicate north. Normal compasses can work . For mission 1, task three we need to create a map of the wreck ship. We must sketch the important details of the ship. We have to label the ship's length in the map. Show the orientation of the ship in the map. We must show the position of the ship in the map as well. Create a sketch of the ship. We must make a sketch of the grid as well to make drawings of the debris piles in the grid. The piles must be in its correct location in the map. For mission 1, task four we can determine if the debris piles are metal or non-metal by simply using a small horseshoe shaped magnet. Magnets can work underwater because water is a diamagnetic substance. This means that there a lack of magnetism in water so it is almost non magnetic. There is no mechanical breakdown with magnets underwater. For example, getting crushed by the water pressure or flooded to the point that the frictional force of the water is greater than the force that would cause the magnet to orientate north so magnets won't have a problem underwater even if the friction forces of water are greater than the magnet itself. Water itself is a diamagnetic substance. This means that a magnet can repel the water. Temperature in water will not affect the magnetic field of the permanent magnet unless the temperature reaches to the curie temperature will remove the magnetism from the object. We need a small magnet because the debris piles aren't very big and it will make easier for us to see if the p iles are metal or non metal. The size of the magnet won't affect the magnetism for the piles. The small magnet would be much more easier to install to our R.O.V and the magnet will be in front of the camera so we can see it connecting to the ferrous. We can use a long and thin pvc pipe that has a ring that the front that can clip on and we put the magnet in the ring.
For mission 2, task one we need to transport and attach a lift bag to the fallen mast. First, we must pump air to the lift bag. Next we have to use the payload to attach the lift bag with the U-Bolt. The mast would be located against the hull of the ship. For mission 2, task two we need to inflate the lift bag with a manual pump at the officials would give us in the completion. Lift bags must be completely out of air before our R.O.V enters the pool. We will then put water in the lift bags once the air has been removed. We will receive full points when the lift bag is in the surface of the pool. If the lift bag is still rising to the surface we won't receive points. This means that we must put as much air and water to the lift bag. For mission 2, task three and task four we need to remove the endangered encrusting coral from the ship's hull. There will be two corals in the ship's hull. We must carefully grab the coral with our payload. Then place the corals to a empty square on the grid. For mission 2, task five we need to use two simulated sensors to see if there is oil in the tank. We to have a water proof ultra thickness gauge and a neutron backscatter. We must have a waterproof ultra thickness gauge because it will have a case with lens that will let us see the number in the camera. A ultra thickness gauge is designed to measure the time of a wave would in the water will come. The gauge will be easy to install to our R.O.V and has a great accuracy when it's underwater. The neutron backscatter will have to be placed under the R.O.V because it will be able to rub on the hull and we can see the results from our camera. The neutron backscatter emits high energy neutrons. When a neutron smashes into a hydrogen atom it releases a energy which becomes a thermal neutron. The thermal neutron go to the device where it is counted and gives the results if there is a oil or not. For mission 2, task eight we need to collect a sample of the oil. We need to use a tube from the R.O.V. This tube well have a small plastic box attached to it. One side of the tube would be taking the sample while the other is putting the sample to the box. The tubes will be controlled for taking samples from one tube and closing the gap from the box. The box will be inside of the R.O.V. We will then take the box and give it to the judges.
maybe we could measure the distance between the claws then rotate the claw then each time it was there that counted as one...... and April esme CONESENTRATE XD
Finally, we should have someone that can draw easily without making many mistakes to sketch the shipwreck. They should also have neat writing so that the judges can easily read our grid. These our some ideas and ways that we can succesfully complete our tasks but we have to remember that there is a time limit.
This is Seth Baklor, team captain of the Purdue University ROV team. I've been trying to get more official contact info through Shedd, but don't feel like waiting anymore. A Google search brought this site up rather quickly. After watching the Shedd regional for 3 years, we want to finally see a Ranger team from our regional finish in the top 10 internationally.
Based on what we saw last year, Eli Whitney has a great chance to succeed. So we want to help!
What can we do for you? -Help with poster, tech report, and presentation -Make a couple advanced parts (aluminum milling or water jet) -Do you need an air compressor? We have a spare. -Provide a couple practice sessions (if you drive to Purdue) -Help with solving engineering problems etc. etc.
Task #2:
ReplyDelete1) We could use the hand to take the lift bag from the j-hook and hook it onto the mast then move it away from the area.
2) I honestly would have to see something like the lift bag to see how we could "inflate it".
3) Using the hand, we could remove the coral.
4) We would have to take the corals to the grid squares before it floats.
From there on I'd need to understand the rest of the mission better.

you write too much :0
DeleteTo Raul:
ReplyDeleteDude you wrote a lot!!! :D
Raul you should be a journalist lol (:
ReplyDeleteEsmeralda: LMFAO
ReplyDeletemaybe we could measure the distance between the claws then rotate the claw then each time it was there that counted as one...... and April esme CONESENTRATE XD
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking that we should make the camra and the arm move up and down and side to side
ReplyDeleteShe told us to Comment and we are XD
ReplyDeleteWe could use the hand to take the lift bag from the hook and hook it onto the mast then move it away from the shipwreck area.
ReplyDeletethats a good idea Mark. but how will u mark the place where u last measured:)
ReplyDelete@joshua whats a camra
ReplyDeleteNelly is right
ReplyDeleteby rotating from we last were from and were supposed to comment on the I D E A " S

ReplyDeletemaybe we could tie a string to a cup or container and drive the cup to the oil thing

ReplyDeleteFor task 2 we can attach a container to the ROV that can hold the oil thing
ReplyDeleteTHING:)
Deletei agree with esmeralda

Good Luck this Year
And yes, you are the only team we're reaching out to at this point.
