Abstract

The first part of the paper reviews existing technologies for remote marine monitoring with emphasis on latest achievements in the area, including the main common properties and differences between data buoys, moorings, landers, drifters and floats. Novel design for modular smart event triggered marine monitoring platform is proposed in second part of the paper. Mechanical and electrical design of the proposed platform is provided, including early experimental results regarding power consumption. Event trigger mechanism, used for saving battery power consumption, is explained and minimum amount of platform power consumption is determined. Some ideas for future work are also provided.
