Choosing our Environmental Sensors


In our earlier posts we discussed using environmental sensors (salinity, temperature, pH) as well as a camera to take stock of the underwater environment around our ROV. We did some research on the different types of sensors and came up with a list of what we'd like to see on our ROV. We also talked to Research institutes (such as Gulf of Maine Reserch Institute and Bigelow Laboratories) to see what features would be useful to them. After talking with representatives from both Institutions we were able to come up with the list below:




Light Sensor



Dissolved Oxygen


Stay up-to-date and check out following posts on how to use these sensors with the Raspberry Pi and Arduino.
