Sensor:

Pressure sensor: A pressure sensor is a device that measures the pressure of a fluid or
gas. It converts the physical pressure into an electrical signal that can be interpreted and
analyzed by an electronic system.

The sensor communicates over I2C. It operates on 3.3V I2C voltage but can accept power
input up to 5.5V. It comes standard with a JST GH connector, however it is not compatible
with ArduSub or the BlueROV2.

Electronic cards:

 Arduino: Arduino first and foremost is an open-source computer hardware and


software company. The Arduino Community refers to the project and user
community that designs and utilizes microcontroller-based development boards.
These development boards are known as Arduino Modules, which are open-source
prototyping platforms. The simplified microcontroller board comes in a variety of
development board packages. This allows users to control and interact with other
electronic components, such as sensors, motors, and LEDs, using their own custom
code.

 Raspberry: Small, single-board computers developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi


Foundation. These small computers are designed to be affordable and accessible to
anyone, making them popular among students, hobbyists, and professionals alike.
Raspberry Pi boards are designed to be used for a wide range of projects, including
media centers, game consoles, home automation systems, and even small servers.
They are equipped with a processor, memory, and input/output ports, and can run a
variety of operating systems including Linux-based distributions such as Raspbian and
Ubuntu. The Raspberry Pi community is also very active and supportive, with a large
number of projects, tutorials, and resources available online to help users get started
with their own projects. The latest Raspberry Pi models also offer advanced features
such as built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, making them even more versatile
and useful for a wide range of applications.

A ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) may include a variety of sensors, depending on its
intended use and the specific design of the ROV. Some common types of sensors that may
be used on an ROV include:

Depth sensor: A depth sensor measures the depth of the ROV below the surface of the
water. This can be used to help the ROV maintain a specific depth or to avoid hitting the
seafloor.

Temperature sensor: A temperature sensor can be used to measure the temperature of the
water surrounding the ROV.

PH sensor: A pH sensor can be used to measure the acidity of the water surrounding the
ROV.

Salinity sensor: A salinity sensor can be used to measure the salinity of the water
surrounding the ROV.

Current sensors: Current sensors can be used to measure the direction and strength of water
currents.

Pressure sensor: A pressure sensor can be used to measure the pressure of the water
surrounding the ROV.

Turbidity sensor: A turbidity sensor can be used to measure the clarity of the water
surrounding the ROV.

Altitude sensor: An altitude sensor can be used to measure the height of the ROV above the
seafloor.
Orientation sensors: Orientation sensors can be used to measure the roll, pitch, and yaw of
the ROV.

Acoustic sensors: Acoustic sensors, such as sonar, can be used to measure the distance to
objects or to map the underwater environment

Navigator Hardware Setup


The Navigator is an add on board for the Raspberry Pi 4 that enables autonomous vehicles
running ArduPilot and BlueOS. The board is equipped with a suite of sensors to enable
autonomous vehicle control with the Raspberry Pi 4 including digital accelerometer,
gyroscope, dual magnetometers, ADC and pressure sensor. It also includes a rich set of
connectors for connecting all of your vehicle’s hardware like servos, motor controllers,
sonar, GPS and other sensor peripherals.

 Main 5V (Primary)

The Main 5V input is the primary power input. This input accepts regular servo-style 3
position 0.1″ pitch female headers. The Blue Robotics 5V6A Power Supply is recommended
but 5V UBECS that can supply at least 4.5A will also work.
 POWER (Secondary)

Navigator can also be powered using a power module connected to the POWER port. This
port is also used to connect analog power modules to measure and provide voltage and
current consumption information.
