A security and surveillance application of the innovative Monitoring Underwater Buoy Systems (MUnBuS) on the Protected Marine Area (AMP) of capo gallo (PA-IT)

Abstract

The proposed low cost systems shows the results obtained in the implementation and testing on real security application to Protected Marine Area surface and submarine environment of a innovative Monitoring Underwater Buoy Systems (MUnBuS) for installation with IR-CCTV-Cam, ultrasonic dolphin warning system and Green Laser Perimeter Detection. This concerning innovative Monitoring Underwater Buoy Systems that can be remotely controlled from the ground, air, satellite and sea and from a Center of Supervision Telecontroller And Data Acquisition and Monitoring (Mobile- STADAM Center). The Buoy is hosts for the radio or satellite communication equipment, the downloading and telemetering data equipment and the photovoltaic power supply, board and underwater instrumentation. The underwater spheres, that is rendered in negative trim, is anchored on the seafloor that must be investigated and is equipped with submarine monitoring equipment and infrared CCTV cameras where the detect data and the image result are linked with the surface buoy through an ethernet cable to fiber optical. The STADAM Centre retransmit all data received in steaming online to the land or other analysis center. This complete system can be solved the typical logistic and technical AMP problems type: remote surveillance, ultrasonic dolphin warning system, and Laser Intrusion Perimeter Detection. The system is also applicable on lakes, river and ports monitoring, organic fish problems and biological submarine research. The underwater acoustics spheres with the environmental monitoring can also be useful with particular attention to submarine climate change impact indicators, surveillance of marine archaeological sites.
