MV-1 Solar Power Cell

Experimental Proof-of-Concept Marine Vehicle / Full-Time Power Cell

An experiment examining numerous concepts pertaining to Functioning Power Cells, Self Contined Solar Powered Craft, Electronic Rudderless Steering/Navigation, and Robotics.

Physical Design

10' Standard Aluminum Boat Hull with 2 seating/storage transoms. Retractable Canopy (transport & storage). Two rear-mounted 40lb Electric Thrusters.

Power Cell and Electronics

12v 200ah Battery Capacity with 2 Batteries stored in transoms.

400w x 2 Solar Input (800w total) via Flexible Panels mounted on retractible canopy. Essentially always in production mode. Even during transport and storage.

Fully Self Contained Electronic Controls and Management including Power Output Port for direct connect to Home System allowing for production even during "storage".

Next Steps: Joystick Interface for power and steering, Remote Operation with Bi-Directional Video via Onboard 5G.
