This may not be the case when moving in the water. A remote-controlled submarine model can be used to simulate the performance of real submarines in a complex environment, showing the working principles of submarines to help understanding submarine technology and marine science. **Solution overview** Our solution involves implementing the functionality of a submarine through a remote-control system, an automatic stabilization and dynamic system, and drainage system. Additionally, we require an electronic control MCU to process remote control commands sent from a distance and handle signals from sensors to achieve submarine balance. Our novelty lies in balance in complex underwater environment and avoiding collision. **Solution component** Sensor Subsystem: 1. Pressure and infrared distance sensors: Measure the depth and object distance at which the submarine is operating. 2. Motion sensors: Monitor the speed and acceleration of the submarine's three-dimensional motion. Processing Subsystem: 1. Main Controller (Microcontroller): Responsible for processing and interpreting sensor data, controlling the submarine's movement and operations. 2. Communication Module: Facilitates data communication with an external base or command center, conveying submarine status and mission information. 3. Automatic Stabilization Module: Utilize sensor data and apply PID control algorithms to realize automatic stabilization. Power Subsystem: 1.Battery and electric Motors: Control the propulsion and maneuvering of the submarine to adapt to different depths and aquatic conditions. Mechanical Subsystem: 1. Cabin: Used to the house rest of the subsystems and keep water out. 2. Water storage tank: Control the total weight of the submarine. **Criterion for success** 1. Effective waterproof functionality. 2. [novelty] System's stability. Maintain the hull's balance under different water conditions. 3. Stable ascension and descent. 4. Forward/backward movements. 5. Various operational modes. Each performs at different applications. Such as Obstacle avoidance, cruise control, etc. (optional) **Distribution of Work** Zhicong Zhang: Mechanical part Yikai Xu: Remote controlling and MCU part Yiqin Li: Electricals part and control system part Wenpeng Zhang: Software part |
