Arduino programming for GPS control of 6 motors in marine project

$25-50 AUD / hour

In Progress
Posted almost 7 years ago

$25-50 AUD / hour

We do have basic arduino software for controlling 6 ESC motors on a unmanned marine boat: GPS unit, compass unit, temperature sensor, ESC output. Then we have a separate piece of software that received GPS waypoints via satelite and saves them on the arduino. The two pieces have to be matched, so we can control the vehicles direction by sending GPS coordinates via satellite. Then we need to finetune the system. So we need someone who has very good experience with arduino programming and is interested in participating in an interesting project.

i have done this before, its not easy, you need to control the rudder with a PID loop otherwise the boat yaws from side to side. Also, GPS signal is attenuated near the water, so you need to raise up the antenna on a small mast. I already have data logging code from a similar drone mounted project, we also have a board that can log to an onboard SD card. Do you need throttle control as well?

Hi, Just wanted to say that you seem to have a fascinating project ahead of you. I regret I can't actually bid on it at this time, just not enough hours left in my day with other projects but I would be interested in contributing informally. I have many years experience in the Arduino environment, especially strong on hardware design and development, but competent with the firmware. Where abouts are you in Oz? Sydney here. Regards and good luck James Harrison-Smith

Hello. Your project is very interesting for me. Right now I'm building small unmanned boat which will run across a set of waypoints on the lake. It has two motors :) Which hardware do you plan to use? I have different Arduino boards, ESP8266 and also Raspberry Pi computers on my side. Also I have more than 10 years experience in software development. Let me know more details about your boat. For example, how will it make the turns? Using the rudder or adjusting the rpm of the motors? Best regards, Vyacheslav
