Underwater Computer Mission File Creation via Navy Data Import
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional underwater computers, such as the ArtemisPRO, while excellent systems, may require higher performance in certain areas for critical applications.
Innovation Solution
The system comprises a hardware processor and software modules that receive inputs for creating a mission file, import data from US Navy software applications COIN and MineNet, and generate a mission file based on these inputs and imported data.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional underwater computers are used for basic navigation and surveying, then the system is simple and easy to operate, but the performance is insufficient for critical applications requiring higher capabilities
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the complex mission planning functionality by separating data importation from mission file creation. The software receives inputs for creating mission files, imports data from external sources (COIN and MineNet applications), and then generates mission files based on both the imported data and user inputs. This segmentation allows the system to handle critical applications with enhanced capabilities while maintaining a modular architecture that manages complexity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the system imports data from multiple external sources and creates comprehensive mission files, then the mission file creation capability is improved, but the data processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The software module is designed with multi-functionality to handle diverse data sources and mission requirements. It can import data from multiple external sources (COIN application, MineNet application) and process various input types to create comprehensive mission files. This universal approach enables the system to adapt to different critical application scenarios while consolidating data processing functions into a single versatile module, managing complexity through functional integration.
Data Source
AI summary
A system comprising: at least one hardware processor; and one or more software modules that are configured to, when executed by the at least one hardware processor, receive one or more inputs related to the creation of a mission file for an underwater surveying or location mission; import data from one or both of US Navy software applications COIN and MineNet; and create a mission file based on the received inputs and the imported data, the mission files to be created.
