【 摘 要 】

The purpose of this project is to create a Floating Platform which can be used in open waters for underwater reconnaissance. The platform will be powered using Solar Power and will be able to work for long durations of time. It uses an underwater "float" connected to the floating platform, via a shaft, to which a set of Hydrophones are connected. The platform is propelled by a set of flappers attached to its sides. The basic idea of the project is to create a device which can float in international waters for indefinite periods of time, which can be used to track the movement of underwater objects which emit sound (whales, dolphins, submarines, etc.)
