Patent number: 10444403Abstract: A water body drifter device for tracking movement of a fluid is disclosed. The drifter may include a floater assembly having a toroid shaped buoy fixedly connected to a floater head disposed interiorly to the toroid shaped buoy, the floater head having a recess and a cap sealably attached to the recess for housing a network-enabled controller. The drifter may also include one or more sensors mounted to the floater assembly to capture physical, chemical or biological data from the water body and/or from the environment around the water body, a drogue formed of a plurality of blades each spaced from one another, and a flexible connector attached to the floater assembly at one end and the drogue at another end. The floater assembly, the drogue, and the flexible connector may each be formed of one or more biodegradable materials.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2017Date of Patent: October 15, 2019Assignee: UNIVERSITY OF MIAMIInventors: Tamay Ozgokmen, Charles Cousin, Guillaume Novelli, Cedric Guigand
