The first boat i made for this project was more of an experiment than a real prototype. i wanted to see if i could make a functioning airboat instead of having to go and buy one. most pieces were cut out from foam, including the deck, which is a marine grade foam.. This project is to develop an autonomous sailing boat research platform for long distance voyages with the end goal of taking part in the microtransat challenge. the microtransat challenge is a transatlantic race of fully autonomous sailing boats. the race aims to stimulate the development of autonomous sailing boats through friendly competition.. Fishpi is a project with the goal of doing just that and crossing the atlantic, using the raspberry pi to pilot the craft. the first step in this project is the proof-of-concept vehicle (pocv). the pocv will test the basic principles of autonomous control with a raspberry pi, and i'm going to show you how to make your own..
First test to make sure the boat even floats. http://lectrobox.com/hacks/autonomous-boat. About the project solar voyager. solar voyager is an autonomous boat designed and built from scratch that is meant to cross the atlantic ocean. spanning over four meters in length and one metre in width, it has enough space to house two solar panels that act as its main power source.. Autonomous boat project. sat mar 07, 2015 11:49 am . hello, i am 'attempting' to build an autonomous boat and i'm kind of struggling. i currently have; a raspberry pi b adafruit's 16 channel 12bit servo driver 3 servo's esc with reverse for the motor hc-sr04 ultrasonic range sensor.
