Measuring Open Water Depth TRIZ Cases
- Multi-USMV Coverage Path Planning With Hierarchical Map Segmentation
Hierarchical submaps and collaborative behaviors help multiple USMVs avoid local optima and improve coverage in complex water mapping.
- Acoustic Mud Layer Depth Mapping With Dual-Frequency Scattering
Dual-frequency acoustic scattering maps underwater mud layer top and bottom depths more accurately for dredging where thick mud masks denser layers.
- Rotatable Airborne Bathymetric LiDAR for Adaptive Oval Scanning
A stepper-motor mounting frame rotates the LiDAR scan ellipse to improve point cloud density and coverage in complex aquatic surveys.
- Multispectral Sonar Array for Simultaneous Survey Missions
A single Mills Cross transducer array uses multiple frequency bands to collect bathymetric, water column, and seafloor data in less survey time.
- Multimission Multispectral Sonar with Mills Cross Arrays
A single projector and hydrophone array captures diverse survey data across missions while reducing survey time and equipment complexity.
- Airborne Bathymetric Laser Radar Trigger Timing for Variable Water Depths
The case calculates water depth and attenuation before sampling, reducing excess waveform storage while preserving bottom-echo timing.
- Near-Real-Time Synoptic Bathymetry From Standardized Vessel Depth Data
This case converts crowdsourced vessel depths to a shared vertical datum, improving real-time waterway depth maps and forecasts.
- Asynchronous Seafloor Pressure Monitoring via Tidal Correction
A mathematical model corrects asynchronous seafloor pressure signals to isolate subsidence data from harmonic tidal variations.
- Dynamic Sensor Geometry via Formation Control
Formation control adjusts sensor carrying craft positions to resolve productivity and measurement precision contradictions.
- Lidar Polarization Analysis for Shallow Water Depth Resolution
A lidar system separates scattered light components by polarization state to achieve sub-pulse width range resolution.
- Dive Computer Real-Time Severity Index Algorithm
A dive computer calculates a real-time severity index using gas, depth, and time data to adjust decompression parameters dynamically.
