Underwater Internet of Things Coonectivity

-

The invention discloses a wireless underwater IOT (Internet of Things) system. The underwater IOT system comprises a deep-water sensor with fast underwater wireless communication built in a deep-water drone. The underwater sensor and drone are used as a node unit. The underwater IOT system is formed by the sensor with wireless communication built into an aquatic underwater vehicle. It is designed with blue LED with a receive and transfer data module. This is used as an information transfer component between both node units. The information is then relayed to a phone or website application.

Description

The invention is an Internet of things underwater Internet Connectivity, Beach and deep-water monitoring Safety and Security System.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This is the technical field of the invention, Internet of things system under water. The invention, an Internet of things system under water comprises deep water sensor with wireless communication modem, a drone with a housing, a propulsion system, electromotors, a camera, wireless transponder, a battery, microcontroller unit and a control hardware unit. The system is designed with bidirectional blue LED receiving and transmitting modules to process and transfer information received from the drone and wireless sensor to a phone or website application.

BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY

The development of wireless communication technology has expanded into new technology like Internet of things. Internet of Things is basically technology transferred from people to things but there are still a lot of challenges for wireless internet connection underwater. Communicating reliably under water is difficult. It is known to use VLF electromagnetic communication (up to 10 KHz), but this requires high power and large antennae, and so is limited to communications involving ships and submarines, being inapplicable for personal use. For short range communication ultrasonic waves in the region of 20 to 600 KHz may be employed. Nevertheless, signal transmission is subject to Doppler effects, non-linear speed of propagation (for example due to different regions of water density and temperature), multipath propagation (also known as reverberation), fading and other environmental disturbances including noise and other acoustic sources.

SUMMARY

The invention is an underwater IOT system comprising a drone with a wireless communication sensor and high-bright blue LED is adopted as a light emitting unit carrying bidirectional data and information. It is equipped with a blue LED receiving and transmitting module. The invention is a submersible aquatic drone designed with deep water sensor to be used to explore and detail aquatic environments. The submersible aquatic drone comprises deep water sensor, a housing, a propulsion system, electromotor, a camera, wireless transponder, a battery, a microcontroller unit, and a control hardware unit. The sensor, a line of optical modems that are compact, power efficient, and operate from the splash zones down to 6'000-meter depth with a communication speed of up to 10 Mbit/s and the range of up to 50 meters. The sensor is designed with modems that are lightning fast. They can send data at up to 10 Mbit/s bandwidth enabling truly HD-quality video transfer wirelessly through water in real time. The sensor penetrates air to water barrier with no effort, making it a great alternative to cables in extremely unforgiving splash zone conditions. This reduces or eliminates three problems of low underwater communication reliability, high cost and high-frequency modulation difficulty.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING

FIG. 1 this is a detailed illustration of the present invention. An underwater aquatic system designed with wireless communication sensors. The personal submersible aquatic drone comprises a housing, a propulsion system, electromotors, a camera, wireless transponder, a battery, a microcontroller unit, and a control hardware unit. The drones can be autonomous or remote-control drones. The deep-water drones are attached with the deep-water communication sensors which transfers data and information to a phone or website application using high-bright blue LED adopted as a light emitting unit carrying bidirectional data and information.

FIG. 2 This is a detailed illustration of the present invention. The present embodiment utilizes deep water drone attached with sensors. The drones and sensors are also nodes for internet of things. The Underwater drone (equipment with sensors developed for underwater use. The sensors are designed to penetrate air to water barrier making it a great alternative to cables. It also enables wireless HD video connection for the resident autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) so that the pilots could take control over their AUVs remotely near the assets; that will enhance the safety of beaches around the world; and provide entertainment for people to explore underwater using water drones.

FIG. 3 This is a detailed illustration of the present invention. The invention is compatible with apps on phone for controlling the drones and capturing live feed from the drones. It offers unparalleled connectivity and can be a vital agent for real time monitoring.
