DronDrones are something we call as UAV(unmanned Aerial Vehicles) an aircraft without an human pilot. UAVs are basically an ground controlled system means they are fully Autonomous. Application of Drones are expanding from commercial, scientific, recreational, agricultural, and other applications.IT can be used in Landways, waterways, airways or in space.

Project Description:

Ocean Drone is the Combination of a ship(sail) it has gone under 10 Years of development. It is powered by Sun and Wind so its a combination of two Renewable energy. In this project you will steer by GPS charged route and it has vertical wing ( fin like fish ) for navigation and direction.We have to such material which you can withstand worst weather condition s and storms in ocean.

  1. Anemometer : An anemometer is a device used for measuring the speed of wind, and is also a common weather station instrument. The term is derived from the Greek word anemos, which means wind, and is used to describe any wind speed instrument used in meteorology.
  2. pyranometer: A pyranometer is a type of actinometer used for measuring solar irradiance on a planar surface and it is designed to measure the solar radiation flux density (W/m2) from the hemisphere above within a wavelength range 0.3 ?m to 3 ?m.
  3. Hygrometer: A humidity sensor (or hygrometer) senses, measures and reports both moisture and air temperature. The ratio of moisture in the air to the highest amount of moisture at a particular air temperature is called relative humidity.
  4. pyrometer: A pyrometer is a type of remote-sensing thermometer used to measure the temperature of a surface. Various forms of pyrometers have historically existed.
  5. barometer : A barometer is a scientific instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure. Pressure tendency can forecast short term changes in the weather. Numerous measurements of air pressure are used within surface weather analysis to help find surface troughs, high pressure systems and frontal boundaries.

Application of ocean drone:

  1. Fish stock analysis
  2. Ocean weather conditions
  3. Environment monitoring

Final Step:


Skyfi Labs Projects
At last you need some solar panels and small wind turbines for some to give optimum amount of power to all the sensors which will be stored in Rechargeable battery.

Kit required to develop Ocean Drone:
