AI Technical Summary
The traditional Seidon disk method has limited operating range, large measurement error, strict conditions, and low efficiency in shallow water shore areas, and cannot meet the needs of short-distance extended measurement.
A shoreline water transparency measurement device was designed, comprising a telescopic support structure, a traction measurement structure, and an observation auxiliary component. The telescopic support structure provides stable support, the traction measurement structure enables precise sinking and depth adjustment of the measuring disc, and the observation auxiliary component acquires image information in real time to determine the depth at which the measuring disc disappears.
It breaks through the limitations of measurement range in shallow water and shorelines, improves the accuracy and convenience of measurement, reduces human observation errors, adapts to complex environments, and achieves automation and reproducibility of results.
