Project and Design of a Catamaran Prototype with Aerial Propulsion System

This paper outlines the innovative design and project details of an Autonomous Surface Vehicle with catamaran topology, specifically engineered for lake inspections. The primary focus is on integrating aerial propulsion systems to enhance operational efficiency and mobility in lacustrine environments. The design incorporates advanced electronic architecture, integrating autonomous navigation systems and specialized sensors for comprehensive data collection. This technological synergy enables the catamaran to conduct precise inspections, monitoring environmental factors, water quality, and other relevant variables. In summary, the proposed autonomous catamaran offers an innovative solution for lake inspections, combining advanced mobility and precise data collection. This project has the potential not only to optimize environmental monitoring operations but also to significantly contribute to the preservation and sustainable management of lacustrine ecosystems.
