Description:
I would like to design a deep water drone that can reach the bottom of a lake. The drone will be roughly 2.5 feet long by 2 feet high by 1/2 foot wide. It will have an infra-red camera in front and a propeller in the back.
Wants:
The prototype should reach a depth of 300 ft. It should be able to operate below 32 degrees Fahrenheit for long periods of time. The skin of the prototype needs to be flexible because the inside will be filled with a jelly. The jelly will be taking all the water pressure.

It will also have a backbone with a go pro camera up front and space in the back for a propeller. The prototype will look fish like.
Software:
  1. AutoCAD

Hi, Asim Goraya
You want in my design drone have a single tail? Also, you want design of drone have frame and body are integrated into a single strong structur (unibody)?.

I like your design, but could I see it with one vertical fin. Two tails that close together lose there advantage. I would prefer a unibody design over a drone made of multiple pieces.

Can you make it blind please?

This is idea is already out there minus the jelly.

Fun project, Lots of creative freedom here to generate concept ideas from. Thanks

Dear Asim Goraya,
there is a problem,
an object so large in the shape of fish in a lake will be mistaken for a predator from any other living being,
so will trigger a general stampede.
However 300 ft below the level would find only scrap fallen over the centuries,
maybe some treasure? :)
Still technologically very interesting.

Hi Guys,

I imagine the underwater drone to be used by biology students or underwater enthusiasts to explore lake bottoms. It will be small, able to be operated by a single person. It will be tethered from a surface vessel. I imagine that an IR Camera would work better at the bottom of a lake than an optical camera. The drone can stay in one place to see underwater vegetation and watch sea life go by, or follow animals around. This is a first prototype that will be made into a 3D model that I can Experiment with. Think of it as the test model and not a finished product ready to ship. Finally I have added some images of vehicles I would like the drone to look like.

Wants:

I would like a design for the body of the underwater drone. I will be using of the shelf motors and a GoPro camera with an IR lens. It is like asking for the design of a car body.

Based on the responses I got, I would like the drone to have two motors. The motors will be mounted in housings in the fins. One motor for each fin.

The fins can rotate 180 degrees like the US Navy Osprey.

The fins have a large surface area in order to maneuver. The fins will work like the fins on a humpback whale.

The drone should stay underwater for at least an hour

果冻的used to give the drone its structure. Instead of using a thick hull to resist high water pressure. The drone will be liquid filled.

The drone should resist popping.

Here ya go.

Contact them for pricing. It's already designed and you don't have to spend $400.00 here.

I find this project suspicious. It's disguise d to look like a fish. It will payloaded with a jelly material. A single propeller at the aft section.

If you're looking for someone to design a TORPEDO of some sort , just say so.

Not enough info...

Hi Asim,

I can work on your project full time
I do have experience designing and building small submarine.
I also have experience with 3D printing (I have a reprap printer)

You can look for Omer ETS , I was team leader of the project from 2012 to 2015.

But as most people say, I need more information.
Do you already have the propultion and controle systeme and only need frame/structure?
What will the jelly be used for? does it need to be food safe? only watertight?

I can start to work on your design as soon as I have more information.

PS: I prefer to work with soldwork than Autocad.

agreed with admin not enough info
would also suggest not enough money either

What is your infrared camera intended for? infrared radiation, or any electromagnetic radiation (including any possible wireless control) aside from the visible spectrum gets greatly absorbed by water and is largely considered unusable underwater.

hi Asim
I have been involved in the design and build of large and small ROV's and AUV's, you will not have full manoeuvrability with one motor/prop.
also, how are you planning to control the drone, is it tethered from surface vessel or launched to swim free (this will require onboard data programming for route planning)

How long is the drone required to stay under water and is it intended to be wireless or wired?

Hyperloop Concept Model
I need a concept design and 3D printing ready files (STL) for a Hyperloop Pod. The design should be inspired by the concept images attached. The design may be different from this concept drawing but follow the general inspiration of the concept. Creativity is still appreciated. The doors on the model should be closed. Interior features such as seats are not required. The compressor fan should be included and detailed. Please also include smaller air outlet at the back of the pod. The “air bearing” or feet should be included. The model should be scaled to be roughly 35mm in diameter and 250mm in length. For further information on the concept and inspiration see attached PDF file. “Hyperloop Alpha” This is for non-commercial purposes. The final files should be free of flaws and read to be 3D printed. I am flexible on software used. I need the CAD file and STL file as a deliverable
Prosthetic Cover Design
We are looking for CAD designs for coverings for prosthetic legs. The products are generally around 450mm tall, with a proportional width similar to human dimensions. We are specifically looking for interesting aesthetic designs. We are open to any type of style, but it should be designed to be structurally sound. It will not have to bear weight, but will have to stand up to bumps and knocks. The final print material has not been specified, but you should assume it is an FDM print. Your design should include some method of attaching the cover to the prosthetic. The product will be printed in a single colour so if your design has multiple colours it will need to designed in such a way that it's easy to paint the required parts. We intend to create a range of covers so there may be ongoing work for the successful designer(s) You should supply us with a CAD file, ready for us to setup in Grasshopper for parametric modelling. You can find examples of other similar products here: http://unyq.com/prosthetic-covers/unyq-armor-below-knee-covers/ http://www.alleles.ca/leg-covers/ Here is an image of a prosthetic that does not have a cover on: http://jdeorthotistandprosthetist.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/FullSizeRender-4.jpg

3D Model of Small Gold Plant
I need a 3D model of a small scale gold plant. I intend to 3D print the model. There are 5 distinct components that need to be modeled: 1- the crushing module (http://www.mbmmllc.com/product/jaw-crusher-modules/) 2- the hopper module 3- the hammer mill (duplicated X2) 4- chutes (duplicated X2) 5- shaker table (duplicated X4) I am attaching a plant layout as well as real life pictures of the components. I need a quick turnaround for the design. It needs to be detailed enough for the modules to resemble the real life components, however, it doesn't need to be overly detailed.
