Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
The current personal automobile market goals and trends are very clear: IoT, autonomous driving, comfort while driving' But those trends do not apply to all personal transportations systems. This project, plans to study the application of IoT and autonomous driving on recreational ships.

The project seeks to offer an understanding of the inside functioning of a recreational boat. This includes studying the ship internal sensor communication protocols (i.e., NMEA 2000 and Seatalk), which are widely used in maritime communication. Also, the project plans to study external communication protocols such as radar, VHF voice and AIS, focusing on AIS details such as the protocol itself, bitrate, delays, etc.

The project aims to put into practice what will be learnt in order to connect ship sensors and an AIS receiver to a Raspberry Pi platform, in order to see the information about our own ship and other ships' information. The final objective is to have a cheap centralised visual data center of the insights of the boat and the boats that are around, setting the basis for autonomous driving and IoT in recreational boats transports.


 
Overview (resum en anglès):

The personal automobile market goals are very clear; IoT, autonomous driving, comfort while driving¿ But those trends do not apply to all personal transportations systems. In this case, we are going to study the IoT and autonomous driving of recreational ships.

The main goals of this work include: i) understanding the insight functioning of a recreational boat; ii) studying the ship sensors protocols and internal communication focusing on NMEA and SeaTalk, which are widely used in maritime communication; iii) studying the external communication protocols for security use focusing on AIS. The third part includes recognizing the data sent between ships and control centers and focusing the study on the AIS protocol in terms of technology features, bitrate, delays, etc...

The project puts into practice what has been learned and connects ship sensors and an AIS receiver to a raspberry pi to see ours and other ships information. The final objective is to have a cheap centralized visual data center of the insights of the boat and the boats that are around. Thus, the work sets the basis of autonomous driving and IoT in recreational boat transports.
