1 UNDERWATER DRONES CONTROL TOWER UNDERWATER DRONES CONTROL TOWER Adnan Tahirovic - Kemal Delic ARCHITECTURE, DESIGN, ENGINEERING

2 Talk outline - why and how uwr is important? Underwater World Explained Technology Challenges and Future Developments Architecture, Design, Engineering Introduced Control Tower Architecture : Conceptual View Cloud Based Analytics : Design View Mapping the Sea Bottom - Navigation Intelligent Underwater Drone Design : Swarming Live Demo : Navigation Algorithm Explained Future Explored

3 Underwater World Explained Hidden Face of Oceans

4 Oceans in numbers Depth of Ignorance - Level of Dependency LIVING SPECIES 91% still unknown, 13% only catalogued RESOURCES 90% of transportation, 20% of animal proteins PHYSICAL WORLD 71% Earth surface water, 93% of heat stored 80% of volcanic activities under water

5

6 Eight challenges - unknowns Thermal - temperature anomalies, impacting life on earth Geological - cobalt, platinum etc found in proximity of volcanoes Genetic - new molecules for drugs learned from deep sea creatures Ecological - destruction of habitats Climate - likely impact of human activities Hydrodynamic - Golf Stream 15% lower circulation Chemical - seas and oceans may become toxic or sterile Physical - rise of the sea level, 60% megapolis on the coast

7 Map of unknown worlds Nobody knows for sure what might be below seabed where, how much it is worth Strategic future exploration Always preceded by map creation

8 New molecules Discoveries of new drugs and materials Species living in extreme conditions, no sunlight, huge pressure and cold

9 Gulf stream change Climate Change Might be caused by Changes in ocean Streams? Last 3 centuries
