[0053] Now refer to as Figure 4 In the semi-schematic diagram shown, the first embodiment of the system (ie, the embodiment incorporating an underwater camera) may include (in physical form):

[0054] Shipboard power supply hub 50c, connected to a host computer 10c (shown as a portable computer but can take other forms) and a depth sounder 31c installed on the ship and a combined GPS, compass, and tilt sensor 60c;

[0055] Load-bearing umbilical tube cable 41c (and figure 2 Described in the load-bearing umbilical cable line 41a and image 3 It is similar to the load-bearing umbilical cable 41b), except that it enables the communication network between the shipboard power supply hub 50c and the underwater power supply hub located in the housing 80c (if necessary) up to several hundred meters. (This enables communication and control between the deck unit, camera and sensor), in addition to carrying a physical load between the vessel and the underwater frame assembly 90c;

Abstract

A system for the collection of visual and related data on marine and other underwater habitats and fauna, in particular and without limitation for benthic habitats over significant spatial scales. Thesystem can include elements such as a digital or video camera to receive visual images, various sensors to sense other related data and waterproof housings to protect various elements of the device.A sensor may for example be a global positioning system. The device can also include elements to control the device and to record, transfer & process the data.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system for collecting data on oceans and other underwater habitats and fauna (especially and not limited to seabed habitats on huge spatial scales). Background technique [0002] The marine environment, especially the submarine habitats in the coastal waters, are increasingly being affected by humans. However, its huge spatial coverage and inaccessibility often make it difficult for biodiversity assessment to be accurately monitored and managed. Although the remote sampling system is currently being used by expert service providers for monitoring, there is no commercially available system that allows the wider scientific community to use it conveniently and cost-effectively, and incorporates a sufficient level of spatial accuracy and quantitative ground. The ability to record large amounts of data, the function of'plug and play' for a wide range of scientific data sensors, and the adaptability to a wide range of scientifi...
