Project #9 Designing self-stabilising platform for sea vessels

This project is offered by Navantia, an Australian shipbuilding and sustainment company. The project is to design a self-stabilising platform that keeps sensors or equipment level and steady on an autonomous vessel. It will involve exploring different stabilisation methods and defining the requirements for the stabilisation platform. Using CAD software, students will develop an active control system that adjusts the platform's orientation based on sensor feedback, then construct and test a prototype. The project will suit 3rd year (or later) students from mechanical, mechatronic, maritime or electronics disciplines.

In-kind supervision support will be offered by engineers from Navantia.
