Abstract
Sailing across the ocean is the core to multiple worldwide integral industries and to navigate safely, a smart monitoring system is essential. With the threats and challenges encountering marine vessels across the globe, ranging from internal vessel issues to piracy, distinct marine systems have proven to be efficient in applying supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) to avoid fatal consequences affecting crew members lives and the vessel as a whole. Thus, as future engineers we aim to design and innovate an integrated intelligent marine system that monitors the vessel effectively in terms of monitoring quality of air, deep inside and to control temperature, detect possible hazards due to leaks, fires, and potential collision with other vessels and marine objects. As formerly mentioned, our integrated marine vessel smart monitoring system will be incorporating multiple sensors either separately or connected together that are powered by a solar-based renewable energy system. Using photovoltaic cells, the energy from the sun will be converted to electrical energy and stored in a battery to power the distinct sensors incorporated in our system in order to function adequately. Such sensors will be linked together onto a uniform display platform that allows the user to read and command actions accordingly as per the situation at hand. Water level monitoring, fire extinguishing, GPS-based guidance system as well as a simple antipiracy system will be coordinated within a single system
