Abstract

The objective of this project is to conduct an underwater survey. The primary goal is to develop a device that can achieve the desired output under test conditions. For this reason, certain practical considerations must be taken into account, and the implementation is then developed to be carried out to obtain stable performance with the available hardware based on that experiment. The experiment was performed via BlueROV2 (Remotely Operated Vehicle) using RaspberryPi and softwares such as QGC (QGroundControl) and ArduPilot. This paper explains the work, the results with the collected data and how we implemented the work is presented in the end. The intention of this experiment is to connect two PCs using RaspberryPi with MAVLink communication using a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf device.
