Design of Automatic Aquaculture Workboat Driven by Air Propellers

Abstract:

At present, artificial bait casting and water quality detection are widely used in the domestic aquaculture, it is difficult to improve the yield and quality of the output of aquatic products such as fish, prawn and crab because of low production efficiency and limited labor force. This paper proposed an automatic aquaculture workboat driven by air propellers based on 3G(GNSS、GIS、GPRS), equipped with main controller ARM11, automatic path planning and tracking based on GIS and GNSS system and remote monitoring with GPRS communication module, the workboat can perform bait casting and water quality parameters detection such as dissolved oxygen, pH, water temperature, ammonia nitrogen and salinity automatically according to the aquaculture tasks. It can improve the aquaculture work efficiency and save the manpower and the material resources.
