2 Technical Management: cooperation for integration
From Sensor Devices (SDs) needs: catamaran fluidic subsystem scheme, simplified scheme for flat-boat Water Decoupling SDs Fluidic interface Thanks to the involved partners efforts, the SDs been implemented according to the defined interfaces and they can be plag&play installed on floating robots and the “chemical” buoy. Well determined electrical, electronic, hydraulic, informatics interfaces have been proposed to all the involved partners to facilitated the mounting/dismounting of all the SDs and to realize common, standard connections easily to use, to check and to maintain.

13 La 3a Newsletter di HydroNet
28 – 01 – 2012 HydroNet Network di Robot sensorizzati di superficie per il Monitoraggio delle Acque La 3a Newsletter di HydroNet Benvenuti alla terza newsletter di HydroNet distribuita con cadenza annuale per tenervi aggiornarti sui risultati del progetto europeo. Il progetto HydroNet è uno STREP sottomesso nell’ambito dell’area tematica ENVIRONMENT del 7° Programma Quadro della EC, e ha progettato, sviluppato e sperimentato una nuova piattaforma tecnologica per migliorare il monitoraggio delle acque. La piattaforma è costituita da una rete di robot marini autonomi, natanti e boe, dotati di sensori miniaturizzati ambientali, integrati in una infrastruttura software di Ambient Intelligence. HydroNet ha appena terminato con successo il terzo e ultimo anno di attività e ha realizzato 3 natanti, 5 boe e tutti i loro sottosistemi. Nell’ultimo anno sono stati realizzati e integrati negli scafi le parti meccaniche, fluidiche ed elettroniche dei sottosistemi, oltre ai moduli software necessari al controllo dei robot stessi. Il Consorzio è composto da 10 partner. Cinque sono istituzioni pubbliche: Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna (SSSA, Italia), Hochshule Lucerne (HSLU, Svizzera), Jozef Stefan Institute (IJS, Slovenia), University of Ljubljana (UOL, Slovenia), Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HUJI, Israele), e cinque sono aziende medio-piccole: Dedalus SpA (Italia), LUMEX (Russia), Norwegian Institute for Air Research (NILU, Norvegia), Institute of Physical Biology (IFB, Slovenia), RoboTech srl (RT, Italia).

14 Ringrazia 2 Livorno - January 31th , 2012 Giacomo Saviozzi
Il progetto HydroNet ha realizzato una nuova piattaforma hardware e software composta da una rete di robot autonomi, sensorizzati e interconnessi via radio. In accordo al paradigma di Ambient Intelligence (AmI), la piattaforma HydroNet integra i robot in una rete sensoriale mirata alla verifica, in tempo reale, in-situ della salubrità degli ambienti acquatici e alla generazione di informazioni spazio-temporali sulla qualità dell'acqua. Il nucleo della piattaforma è rappresentato da sensori (biologici, ottici e chimici) montati all'interno di boe fisse e dei natanti. Tutti i robot comunicano con la stazione di controllo remota nella quale è installato il software che costituisce il core del sistema AmI. La rete di robot sensorizzati campiona e analizza rapidamente in-situ diversi parametri fisici e chimici dell'acqua generando informazioni in tempo reale sullo stato di salute degli ambienti acquatici. Sensori miniaturizzati rilevano la presenza di diversi inquinanti (cromati, cadmio, mercurio, petrolio, idrocarburi). Il progetto ha anche sviluppato modelli matematici evoluti al fine di simulare la diffusione degli inquinanti in fiumi, laghi e acque costiere. I robot sono natanti, piccoli, leggeri, energeticamente efficienti ed eco- compatibili, sia in termini di impatto ambientale (dimensioni, colori), sia in termini ecologici (materiali utilizzati e generatori di energia). Essi sono in grado di comunicare con la stazione di controllo attraverso una connessione radio senza fili. Le boe sensorizzate monitorizzano un'ampia gamma di parametri ambientali e atmosferici e sono anche nodi della rete per migliorare la connettività e la localizzazione dei robot mobili. Tutta la rete è connessa alla stazione di controllo che mette a disposizione degli operatori e dei decision maker servizi per la gestione e per l'analisi intelligente dei dati con interfacce utente avanzate. La flotta di robot sensorizzati è in grado di navigare in diversi ambienti acquatici: acque costiere, fiumi (alla foce), laghi naturali e artificiali e lagune. In ogni ambiente l’obiettivo della flotta è anche quello di localizzare, in maniera cooperativa, la sorgente inquinante. Caratteristiche dei robot Distanza operativa: 15 km per i fiumi, 20 km per le aree costiere; Velocità di crociera: 3 nodi; Autonomia: 8 ore; Profondità campionamento: max 50m; Abili con mare forza 3 (vento 7-10 nodi); Dimensioni: lunghezza < 2m, peso ~80kg; gestione: 2 persone. 2 Livorno - January 31th , 2012 Giacomo Saviozzi

17 Conclusions Today’s awareness for tomorrow’s commitments
We have: an excellent research prototype Society needs: an industrial prototype There’s a gap .... then there’s another gap (industrial production) Surely, it needs much more money HydroNet is an infrastructural need for the Earth wellness Livorno - January 31th , 2012 Giacomo Saviozzi
