Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for constructing an underwater wearable device with environmental perception capabilities and autonomous propulsion, and in particular to a novel method for constructing an underwater wearable device for underwater sports, diving, and real-world observation. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional freediving is a form of diving in which divers do not rely on diving equipment or oxygen tanks, but rely solely on their own breathing abilities to move freely underwater. Freediving depths are generally limited to no more than 30 meters. While standard life jackets are designed to provide static buoyancy, in certain situations, the buoyancy provided by a standard life jacket may still be insufficient to protect a person's life. Deep-sea equipment diving involves divers carrying deep-sea equipment (such as oxygen tanks, regulators, and wetsuits). Deep-sea equipment diving allows divers to stay underwater in deeper waters for extended periods, but it is more physically demanding, and divers may experience exhaustion. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for constructing an underwater wearable device with environmental awareness and autonomous propulsion, capable of meeting the diverse needs of different wearers. According to this method: the wearer activates the motor by turning on a switch when necessary. In case of danger or emergency, the wearer can use an electrically driven life jacket to move quickly and remain on the surface to escape danger, or wait for further rescue. For wearers operating in shallow water, the oxygen cylinder of this device can be removed; for wearers engaging in diving, the oxygen cylinder can be installed for oxygen supply. All wearers can control the rotation of the propellers in the front, rear, and downward directions via control buttons. The rotation of the propellers in all three directions generates powerful thrust, enabling the wearer to move faster and more energy-efficiently.

[0004] This invention relates to a method for constructing an underwater wearable device with environmental awareness and autonomous propulsion. The device constructed according to this method includes: a device shell (1), a motor*5 (2), a power supply (3), a propeller thruster*5 (4-8), a camera*1 (9), an emergency signal device*2 (10-11), an oxygen cylinder (12), a conduit (13), a transmitter (14), and a control unit (15). The power supply is connected to the motors at different locations to drive the rotation of the propeller thruster.

[0005] The positioning module on the equipment is connected to the processor unit via a transmitter to locate the position of the life jacket body in real time and transmit the position information of the life jacket body to the processor unit.

[0006] Using a miniature camera on the device, the wearer can capture real-time underwater video streams and send them to a server in real time.

[0007] Furthermore, in dangerous situations, the camera on the device can help rescuers obtain real-time information about the waters where the wearer is located, thereby facilitating command and control of rescue operations.

[0008] The wearer can connect to an oxygen cylinder via a tube for timely oxygen supply.

[0009] The wearer can control the direction of movement via the control unit. Currently, the device can move forward, backward, left, right, up, and rotate.

[0010] The emergency signal device on this device can help wearers cooperate in teams or groups. Attached Figure Description

[0012] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the back structure of the device constructed according to this method.

[0013] The following detailed description of the invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, illustrates the following: The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following method: This invention is a method for constructing an underwater wearable device with environmental perception capabilities and autonomous propulsion. The device constructed according to this method includes: a device shell (1), a motor *5 (2), a power supply (3), a propeller thruster *5 (4-8), a camera *1 (9), an emergency signal device *2 (10-11), an oxygen cylinder (12), a conduit (13), a transmitter (14), and a control unit (15). The power supply is connected to motors at different locations to drive the rotation of the propeller thruster.

[0014] Furthermore, the launcher is mounted on the life jacket. The launcher is installed on the back of the life jacket to ensure that it is positioned to protect it from water and physical damage.

[0015] Next, connect the transmitter to a power source. The transmitter will use a battery or other rechargeable power source to ensure continuous operation for a period of time in order to conduct rescue operations in an emergency.

[0016] Furthermore, the positioning system can be connected to the rescue monitoring center or command and control center so that the location of the life jacket can be accurately tracked when needed, and command and control actions can be taken based on the environmental perception information of the life jacket.

[0017] Furthermore, after the wearer enters the water wearing the equipment and obtains real-time underwater information images or effects, it also includes: obtaining current location information and position information in real time through the positioning module.

[0018] By combining location information and real-time clear imagery, real-time interactive address information can be generated.

[0019] It is used to acquire real-time underwater video streams through miniature cameras, enabling low-latency scene feedback control in the command and control center.

[0020] The module acquires clear images and performs real-time analysis of underwater video streams using advanced image stabilization and turbulence algorithms.

[0021] The real-time image display module is used to push real-time clear images to the display end. The display end includes an intelligent display area and a perspective area for displaying real-time perspective images, so that the intelligent display area displays the real-time clear image corresponding to the real-time perspective image.

[0022] Furthermore, a front-facing light is installed inside the camera to project a light source forward in dimly lit scenes, making it easier to see objects in the dark.

[0023] Furthermore, this device can not only ensure the daily activities of wearers in simple waters, but also enable team or formation activities of wearers in complex waters.

[0024] In simple waters, the wearer can use the life jacket to move quickly or stay on the surface of the water, and can also save themselves in dangerous situations until rescuers arrive.

[0025] In complex waters, wearers can wear appropriate oxygen cylinders to ensure oxygen supply during normal activities and to provide timely oxygen in case of danger, thus enabling them to perform specific tasks.

[0026] Furthermore, a control button switch is installed on the upper front of the life jacket. When the wearer activates the corresponding switch, the motor is connected to the propeller thruster via a rotating shaft and to the power supply located at the rear via a wire. There are three control buttons, which are used to control the propeller thrusters at the front, rear, and bottom respectively.

[0027] Furthermore, the propellers at the front of the life jacket face forward, the propellers at the back face backward, and the propellers at the bottom face downward.

[0028] After putting it on, the wearer can select the normal swimming mode. If the device requires assistance, the button switch can be activated, which will power the motor and drive it to rotate. This motor, through the transmission shaft, will drive the propeller in the corresponding direction, propelling the wearer forward by the jet of water.
