Description of Invention
A remote-controlled boat system is proposed to perform waterway condition monitoring with surveillance and water sampling functions. The integration of the drone-controlled system into the boat enables an autopilot system so the boat can travel along the set path. The boat is equipped with a water collection device and a surveillance camera system. Experiments were conducted at Ayer Keroh Lake. Two samples from each of the 44 targeted areas were collected and tested to provide insightful information on water bodies. This system opens up possibilities for comprehensive water body assessments, contributing to the advancement of sustainable and efficient water testing.
