Abstract:
In the event of a vessel sinking accident, it takes a lot of manpower, equipment, and time to search for lost vessels due to difficulties in securing underwater vision. If the searching work in the water is extended, excessive costs are incurred, and pollution of the marine environment may occur due to corrosion of ships and oil spills. In this paper, we introduce the visualization system for the underwater positioning using an underwater signal generator, a floating signal receiver and an underwater positioning algorithm to monitor the position of the sunken vessel. It can be minimized the human and material resources by maximizing the efficiency of underwater rescue and search operation for sunken vessels. In addition, it is expected that it can be used for various purposes such as submarine tracking, underwater monitoring and tracking the location of underwater rescue workers, underwater leisure sports, and so on through the minimizing of signal generation devices.
