1.3. Problem Statement
ROV’s has become more important on industries that related on underwater. Many scientists and engineers built new technological devices that dive into deep oceans in order
to discover and survey the underwater world. Either than that, most of petroleum industries are facing problem doing inspecting or monitoring on piping or chain. Much of the new
offshore development exceeded the reach of human divers. There is needed more divers on doing underwater task, sometimes to done the routine of maintenance only. All task need
to be done by divers himself. Otherwise, rescue team such as BOMBA also can used ROV to rescue and seek missing or dead body as it much related to shallow water activities.
They are many constrain that could be a restriction for divers like pressure withstand ability when the divers need to dive high deep inspection. Hazardous on
underwater environment also could be a challenge for divers himself. The costing for the equipment of diving and hiring of the divers itself can be higher depending on type of task.
It will cause the increment of cost and time usage for the inspection and monitoring task.
As the industry facing all of these challenge, it is importantly to develop and done some improvement to overcome the entire problem. The alternate way to overcome this
problem is to create device that can replace the divers to fulfill all the underwater duties. Currently, designing of ROV are facing problem on sealing the electronic part component
to avoid any leakage. Then, they also need to overcome the problem of ROV stability while submerging and resurface the device. Controlling also one of the important part to
make sure that ROV is capable for maneuver either in surface or submerge. One of the significant points that I choose this project is to design device that can helps on monitoring
underwater activities and have better maneuver control. Building a ROV involves a lot of skills and knowledge in Mechanical Engineering to design the ROV body and Electrical
Engineering for power up the ROV .Programming skills also required to design the system for ROV movement ability. All of this always is a big challenge on designing underwater
robot.
