Nice video Hoppy, I hope Kermit doesn’t look to hard as he might see something in the back of my car.
Here is my video from today.
Kermit, Sorry I can’t reveal to much as yet as it’s still under development.
But I can tell you it uses a 5 axis, vacuum dampened hydrostatic gimbal system with negative feedback using fuzzy logic logarithms to keep the horizon level at all times. It uses four MPU6050 accelerometers and two ISM630DHCX Gyroscope Sensors, with quad processors. All this is fitted into a tiny explosion proof, hydrophobic housing to keep the elements out, but it still has to have a sensitive waterproof external microphone to pick up the ambient sounds. (Like frogs croaking)
It’s the same system as I used in the scale boats video above.
Some more of the real boats sailing today.
It was a perfect balmy spring morning for sailing the IOM’s in the pristine crystal clear waters of the Lauderdale canal. There was a light westerly caressing the waters to move the immaculate IOM yachts through their paces to make for some exciting racing throughout the morning.
Even the green boat won a race (or two)
P.S. not a wheelchair or cane in sight!
