Project goals and objectives[edit]
Objective: Developing an automatic control system for a sailing yacht.
In order to achieve our goals, the following tasks need to be done:
- Construction and installation of steering and hoisting sails mechanisms on the yacht
- Equipping the yacht with onboard sensors (GPS, magnetic compass, wind sensor, accelerometer)
- Hardware development: a control module, based on the Arduino controller able to receive signals from the sensors and provide a feedback signal for a closed-loop control.
- Software development: a program tool that calculates an optimal route considering the information received from the sensors.
The project is developing by Technical Section of Yachting.
Completed Goals[edit]
Yacht "Nubble" (6.5 m), which is going to be equipped with an automatic control system, was purchased, renovated and launched on water. We developed a steering control system allowing to maintain a course. The work of the system was demonstrated at The XVII International Forum “Russian Industrialist” in LenExpo.
Current Goals[edit]
- Developing a simple algorithm allowing to tack downwind (Maistrov, Red’kov, Murachev)
- Choosing the best algorithm to control the tiller (Maistrov, Murachev, Red’kov)
- Developing various of filtering algorithms, e.g. "Kalman filter" (A. Murachev)
- Acquiring data from a magnetic compass, taking into account the yacht’s heeling effect (A. Maistrov)
- The second option is an Android app with a yacht remote control interface, a map, and a data monitor (A. Red’kov)
Solved problems[edit]
- Acquiring data from the GPS sensor and first versions of a path-tracing algorithm allowing to sail from point A to point B (A. Murachev)
- The first version of the Android app for the yacht remote control (A. Red’kov)
Press about us[edit]
Participation in competitions and exhibitions[edit]
- June 2013: a victory in UMNIK competition
- St.Petersburg International Innovation Forum “LenExpo”
- Competition of small-size shipbuilding projects (2nd prize)
- Exhibition "VOLGA Boat Show 2013"
Market demands[edit]
The yacht should be capable of:
- To follow the track that user drew with a finger
- Track memory and a cyclic sailing option
- Sonar function
- "Parktronic" with a proximity sensor and a camera (optional)
- Fail-safe autopilot automatically turning off at a speed over 20 km/h
- Cruise control up to 35 km/h
- GSM alarm system
- Wireless speakers for the iPhone
- Satellite tracking
