AquaPod
AquaPod is an innovation project developed with the Istrian company Marservis d.o.o. The project combines the development of an autonomous vessel for collecting marine waste with the design of a monitoring and control system for that vessel.
Marservis is implementing the AQUAPOD+ - Blue Technology for Cleaner Seas project, co-financed by the Norwegian Financial Mechanism 2014-2021 under the Business Development and Innovation Croatia program.
Collaboration
FIPU contributed to the project by designing and developing a system for monitoring and managing the autonomous vessel. As part of that work, the team built an administrator prototype application for tracking, controlling, and reviewing vessel sensor data.
The backend system developed at FIPU consists of a REST service that connects requests from the Arduino client installed on the vessel, an event-log database, and the frontend application shown above.
AquaPod is still actively evolving. Project progress can be followed on the Marservis website , while the demo frontend is available at https://aquapod.netlify.app/ .
The video below shows the vessel moving through the Bay of Pula while collecting sensor data and the corresponding mobile application view used to monitor it.
