The sailing laboratory of the University of Udine deals with various projects, to help sailors using IoT applied to sailing.
SMART BUOYS
Buoy equipped with an ultrasonic wind sensor and a GPS receiver. They are able to communicate the data detected by these sensors in real time to the committee boat (during a sailing race) thanks to the use of a LoRaWAN transmitter.
Electromagnetic Data in YachtS
Analysis of the electromagnetic fields on a yacht and of their environmental compatibility.
Oceanus
An hardware and software platform designed and developed to provide useful information to the crew of a racing yacht. The key features of the proposed solution are its reliability and context-awareness, in order to simplify in an intelligent way the usage of the user interface. Furthermore, Oceanus strives to be as much as possible a low cost architecture, both in software and hardware requirements.
Reverse Engineering
Reverse engineering techniques applied to the study of the hull structure of a yacht.
reversible Electric Motor
Experiment of a reversible electric motor applied to a yacht.
Sea Monitoring
Monitoring alien species in the waters of the Gulf of Trieste: Mnemiopsisleidyi (commonly called sea walnut). Monitoring O2, PH, Salinity, temperature in the waters of the Gulf of Trieste.
