Applying Technology of Virtual Reality to the Navigation of Remotely Operated Vehicles

When evaluating the benefits of the artificial reefs, the generally is performed by sending divers or using Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV). But to do the observation work, the deep sea is too dangerous for human being to work longer time, and ROV has no capable navigation system. So underwater survey became difficulty. The thesis integrates LXT Tracking System, Global Positioning System, Motion Sensor, Gyro Compass and the ROV original sensors such as : pressure sensor and magnetic compass to resolve the navigation problem of ROV, together with the high-density data of Multibeam echo sounder to rebuild the status of the seabed and artificial reefs. The thesis tries to apply the technology of Virtual Reality (VR) in ROV to being the interface. The results demonstrate the VR interface can display the position of ROV in three-dimensional space actually. And it can show the position of ROV navigation and warning message in real time when sailing. So the VR Navigation System will improve the ability of operating ROV greatly.
